Posted by chrisd on from the tim-ney-is-the-funk-king-of-the-east-coast dept.

From the donation page: "Love GNOME? Want to give back to the community of mostly volunteer developers who have worked so hard to make GNOME the powerful, flexible, friendly, fun desktop that it is?" There are a number of contribution levels a person can join at, so if you love Gnome, consider helping the foundation out.

  1. What bullsh*t - all about the money. by wackybrit · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I didn't realize Slashdot was being used as an open forum for people to solicit financial contributions these days. Even worse, the original post did not imply that financial contributions were required, and just say they needed 'help' and 'contributions'.

    If GNOME needed more programmers, people to work on documentation, evangelists, etc.. then posting to Slashdot makes sense and I'm sure a lot of us would jump in.. but just having a post that solicits nothing but money is pathetic.

    It's all about the money, it's all about the dum-dum-da-dum-dum-dum.
