Yes, something many FLOSS project do is go through SPI to handle the
financial side of things for them:

But the domain name renewal sounds like a great option for occasional
stuff. mpg does that work for you? Thanks!

One way to donate is to extend the domains period:

https://shop.gandi.net/en/domain/renew/b28a1fb5-6e8a-46a2-8459-277b5a7b5ffa?search=zeromq.org

Regarding the sponsor button, I'm not sure where we would deposit the
funds. We would probably need some kind of an organization behind it.

We should encourage Bitcoiners and Moneroers to donate more :-)

And setup some Bitcoin and Monero address...

Hi,

The FOSDEM one is a good idea, although next year won't happen again
due to COVID, unfortunately.

Doron manages the websites and domains - Doron, maybe we could setup
the "sponsor" button on Github and use anything that comes in to help
pay those expenses?

Hi mpg,

I can't comment on the hosting and other infra related costs. Perhaps 
Luca or Doron can comment on that. The best way to contribute to the 
zeromq community is to use the projects and hire developers to work on 
any issues and/or improvements.


We also really appreciate yearly meetups/hackathon with beers and food 
at FOSDEM so attending those could also be a suggestion? (as soon as 
it's possible again :S)


Rg,

Arnaud
