Oh, I hadn't seen fundable.org - that would have been much better than my home-hacked solution! I might look into it and see if I could start it up half way (I could pledge the amount already donated to start it off). The only thing that puts me off slightly is the 7% fee, but I guess we can work that in. As for what we'll do if the total isn't reached, I don't think we'd really thought of that. We have every confidence that we'll (eventually) get there! > Luis (going to contribute either way, and probably another round of > drinks-worth when there is a release with recurring actions and/or a > tickler :) Thanks very much for the donation! By the way, there's a tickler in the trunk, so it will be in the next release. Recurring actions might take a little longer... cheers, bsag -- but she's a girl - the weblog of a female geek http://www.rousette.org.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Tracks-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rousette.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/tracks-discuss
