Hi, Just wanted to follow up on my earlier message requesting donations to the Python Software Foundation.
The PSF has now announced the projects we are funding in our first round of grants: http://www.python.org/psf/grants/ We received many other quality grant proposals that could not be funded due to the relatively small size of our budget ($40K this year). I hope we'll be able to raise substantially more money in the coming year to allow us to fund more projects in the next cycle. There are something like 750,000 Python users in the world -- imagine what we could do with just $10 from each! Also new since my previous email: Credit card donations are now (finally) working properly. We can also still accept PayPal and mailed checks. The PSF is a registered non-profit and donations are tax-deductible in the USA. To donate, please go to: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html I hope you will consider including the PSF in your year-end giving. In addition to funding grants, your donation will help the PSF to run PyCon annually (http://www.python.org/pycon) and to protect the intellectual property rights behind Python. Thanks very much, and Happy New Year! Stephan Deibel Chairman of the Board Python Software Foundation http://python.org/psf -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
