Some people asked me if there is a company or an organization behind Tellurium, the truth is it is not. All our developers work in spare time to contribute to Tellurium. Take me as an example, I use whatever time I could find to work on Tellurium and spend at least two to three hours a day on it. As a result, your support means a lot to us.
Since we have pretty small community, I like to request each of our users to contribute whatever you can to help us to promote Tellurium. Only when Tellurium becomes popular, we can bring in new ideas and more exceptional team members to make the framework very solid, which will eventually benefit you all. Hence, your support does count.
