Dear all, After several requests, some internal discussions, and some recent needs, we finally decided to open a donation system for Savonet.
We have opened a paypal account at: [email protected] Donations should be handled through sourceforce.net at this adress: https://sourceforge.net/donate/index.php?group_id=89802 and we shall have a donation link on the main webpage soon. Please keep in mind David's claim at ON2, which is still our viewpoint to this day: Liquidsoap has ran seven years without any money input, so there's no risk that it'll stop because of a lack of funding. Then.. Why donate?? Well, this is a good question! The main reason why we finally decided to allow donations came with the latest research paper we wrote about liquidsoap. The paper was accepted for presentation at the SOFSEM 2011 conference: http://www.sofsem.cz/ Unfortunately, while we thought we could get academic fundings to present it, this will not happen. Thus, we are unable to participate to the event ... unless you help us! More generally, we hope to use any money donated to the project to fund different events related to liquidsoap, most likely transportation, housing, participation costs related to conferences, developpers meetings, presentations, etc. We believe these social aspects are very important at this stage to move forward. Thanks all for your help, appreciation and feedbacks, All the best for the new year to come, Happy Holidays!
