While idly checking the OpenBSD Foundation's web site today I noticed
that the goal for the 2014 campaign 
(http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/campaign2014.html)
has been met and even slightly exeeded (rigth now the total stands at 153,000 
dollars).

But as anybody following this mailing list knows, continued donations
are vital to keeping the development of our favorite operating system
going.  If your company or organization uses OpenBSD, please have a
word with whoever does money things and send them to the OpenBSD
Foundation's Donations page http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/donations.html, 
credit card ready.  I've heard rumors that donating and then taunting
colleagues and superiors to at least match your donation might work too 
(and really, stunts like ebay auctions can be fun but tend to complicate 
things, 
see eg 
http://bsdly.blogspot.no/2014/10/the-book-of-pf-3rd-edition-is-here.html).

Now how much higher can we push this year's total?
