And it disgusts me that my employer, who has tons of installations of
OpenSSH using Redhat Linux, Cisco equipment, and Solaris, and for whom
$100,000 is a drop in the bucket, won't be bothered to spend $1 or to
use it's considerable influence to convince the aforementioned
companies to donate.  Until I hear otherwise from Marco or one of the
VPs at work, my disgust will remain.

I'm going to bring my efforts down a level or two, but much wider, and
see if I can get my fellow admins around the company to buy and
donate.
