Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Donate to Yorba

2013-03-26 Thread Cassidy James
Thanks for the feedback, Jim! I caught that right after I sent that mail. ;)

So far we've had individual members donate if possible, and we're helping
to spread the word via our online presence.

Everyone else: if you haven't donated yet, but have some cash to drop on
the development of this awesome app, please head over there and donate. We
want Geary to rock and would benefit greatly from their success.

As far as an official donation from elementary, we're still discussing
details as a council, but we definitely want to help them out.

Regards,
Cassidy James

 Hey everyone,

 Yorba just launched their crowdfunding campaign on IndieGoGo. As you
 all know, we ship two of their apps default, so we definitely owe them in
 terms of making our desktop complete and functional.

 I'm wondering if we shouldn't donate (as elementary) to Yorba's
 campaign? And if so, how much?

 Here's the link to their IndieGoGo page:

 Please share it and feel free to donate on your own as well :)

Correction: it looks like they opted for the fixed funding model, so yeah,
they only get the money if they reach the goal.

Hey guys,

We're doing an all-or-nothing campaign, like Kickstarter.  IndieGoGo 
does offer a flexible funding model, but as you pointed out, they eat a 
larger chunk if you don't make the goal.  See 
http://support.indiegogo.com/entries/20566503-Fixed-vs-Flexible-Funding


I can answer any other questions as well!

They get the money no matter what (unlike Kickstarter). The difference is
the fee that IndieGoGo takes: 4% of the donations if the goal is reached,
9% if it's not.

Hey Dan,

I was wondering the same thing. I definitely think we should encourage
people to donate to Yorba, but I'm not sure how much we can commit
financially.

>From a practicality perspective, it would be cool to donate at least the
$25 to get elementary mentioned within Geary. ;)

100,000$ is a lot of spaghetti! I didn't even know we (elementary) had
money, but if so, I don't see why we shouldn't donate something like
50-100$.

I don't know indiegogo works, but do they also get the money if they don't
make 100,000$? I'm afraid that they won't get 100,000$, even though I'd
like that very much.
