Re: [Nix-dev] Funding campaign for "Get rid of the Perl dependency" in Nix

2016-01-28 Thread Domen Kožar
We're almost at the goal. 92% is funded. It's happening.

Big thanks to each and everyone chipping in, all parts of the cake count
and are greatly appreciated. I strongly believe this is a good push for Nix
community.

If you haven't contributed yet, now is the time to help finish the funding:

We're at 68% of the goal with 34 donations. Thanks!

You can still donate at https://www.gofundme.com/htuafwrg/

I'd like to ask meetup organizers to spread out the word so we can make
this happen.

That's a shame, is that for EU or also US? We could handle the donation
directly to Shea if someone wants a usable receipt.

Hi,

a quick note: as a corporate sponsor, gofundme seems not to provide usable 
receipts. :(
