>Count me in for a contribution. Thanks for the offer: it's fantastic to see people so committed to the welfare of Spring! Thanks also for the users who are helping others out in the forums... As it happens, we're about to announce a company (Interface21) headed by myself and Juergen which will provide Spring services and help to fund future Spring development (for example, to pay Juergen to continue to be Juergen :-) Interface21 could meet the costs for such a piece of software (it's paying for the hosting for the forums already). However, in this case, I think that we'd be better to wait for the latest version of phpBB. I like the present forums, Colin has put a lot of work into them already, and I'd be reluctant to change horses mid-stream. I should add that personally I find the forums just wonderful--really quick and a pleasant experience. So much so that I've posted far more often than I have recently to spring-user... I find for example, that even when I'm on a client site, I can take 15 minutes out of my lunch break and do a couple of posts--just finding anything I could quickly contribute in the haystack that was spring-user used to take longer than that... -----Original Message----- From: spr...@li...

If there is considerable interest, I'd be happy to fund the purchase of vBulletin. But, of course, if a new version of phpBB is coming, we can always wait. seth ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 _______________________________________________ Springframework-developer mailing list Spr...@li... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/springframework-developer ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 _______________________________________________ Springframework-developer mailing list Spr...@li... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/springframework-developer |
