[Opencxx-users] OpenC++ gets funding

[Grzegorz J. <ja...@ac...>]

Hi all,

Those of you who follow Linux on Power contest may have noticed,
that OpenC++ qualified as Tier 3 application. For those who don't: the
contest is about porting software to PPC architecture (more info
available at http://www.linuxonpower.com/). Admins of SourceForge-hosted 
projects who agreed to judge PPC ports in the contest were sent iPods as 
a gift from contest sponsor (IBM).

I received this gift (iPod mini 4GB) recently. I think I should not keep 
it for  myself. I consulted Chiba, who agreed, that it would make sense 
to sell it and use the the proceeds towards development and promotion of 
OpenC++.

I have just liquidated the item and $250 thus obtained goes to 
(unofficial) OpenC++ Fund, with myself as self-appointed treasurer.

If you have any suggestions on how this money can be used to advance 
OpenC++, please post them on this forum.

Best regards
Grzegorz
