Are You A Friend of Gnome?

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.

  2. Why donate to them? by HanzoSan · · Score: 1, Troll

    They dont need any more money, they have more money than KDE, they had Eazels 15 million, they have Ximnian giving them money, They have Sun and IBM helping them.

    I'll Donate to Enlightenment before I'd donate to Gnome, Gnome is as good as its going to get, its been years, the interface to Gnome hasnt improved at all except for Nautilus (what a waste of 15 million dollars when its not even better than KDE)

    Gnome needs to innovate before I give them money.

    Lets support Enlgihtenment.
