I usually don't see these thank yous from donors, but this one popped in
my box this morning, thought I'd forward it along.

You are very welcome Bradley.
As I sit here at work, just about to use the software yet again for another
graphic, I feel that donating some money after years of benefiting from
Inkscape, was absolutely the right thing to do. I hope very much that
Inkscape continues to grow and improve - it is wonderful software.
best wishes,
Chris

Thank you for your donation to the Software Freedom Conservancy on
2015-11-10
in the amount of $50.00. The Software Freedom Conservancy is a USA
501(c)(3) charity incorporated in the state of New York, and our federal
tax-exempt identification number is 41-2203632.
The donation will be directed toward Inkscape, with 10% going to
Conservancy's general fund, per wishes of the Inkscape project.
We will use the money to continue our work to support and promote software
freedom. Your donation is very meaningful to us and we really appreciate
it.
Would you like your donation to do even more? If you work for a company
based in the USA, your company may have a donation matching program for
501(c)(3) charities. Please contact your HR, Personnel, or charitable
giving department and ask! Many programs match the donation
dollar-for-dollar! If you need assistance in talking with your company
about this, please don't hesitate to ask for Conservancy's help!
Sincerely,
Bradley M. Kuhn
President, Software Freedom Conservancy

Did a page for larger donors/sponsors ever get put up on the site? I have a
company that wants to make a donation... because apparently this is what I
do now. :P They also want to possibly contribute to some funded development
as well.
Cheers,
Josh

We do have a CMS :-D so we can do lots of things for sponsors; an
updated sponsor page is here:
https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/sponsors/
We also talked about allowing some companies some bigger spaces
depending on how massive their contribution.
Martin,

Ah, thank you for pointing me to that page. The last thing you mentioned
was what I was specifically thinking about.
Would we want to add a section to the existing sponsors page for notable
fiscal donors or create a separate page? For example, for the hackfest Red
Hat & Elementary threw us money & SCALE covered my travel costs, except for
this year Google has fiscally given a lot to the project (albeit our
mentors earned it, it wasn't straight charity), etc... I'm sure we've had a
number of other sponsors in the past who deserve recognition too.
Cheers,
Josh

I agree. I think about two years is a good standard time-frame for
decay. So google would fall off the hypothetical section next year.
Maybe if we get $100k we'll put the company on the front page
carousel :-) 10k for a spot tricolunm and 5k for a spot in the footer.
For a year. perhaps?

Sounds like that could be tied in with the sponsorship levels we
discussed a while back. Do we have a page showing silver/gold/platinum
(or whatever it was we decided)?

Not yet! Do you have the notes? I can put the page together if you can
dig up the decision in the log :-D
