Thanks for the Mac Intel version. I sent you a monetary thank you through Sourceforge. It looks like it went through, but I would like confirmation that you can access it. Paypal didn't list it as going to Inkscape specifically unlike the Gimp project does when you send money to Gnome for Gimp. It does list me on the page of contributors to Inkscape under benhuot.
I think it takes a day or two for donations to go through, and I see you listed on the http://sf.net/projects/inkscape/ page so all is probably good.
For the record, here are the donations we've received since we set up the account:
Jun. 1, 2006 $18.06 USD Jun. 1, 2006 $8.38 USD May 23, 2006 $8.38 USD Mar. 27, 2006 $3.54 USD Mar. 3, 2006 $18.06 USD Feb. 27, 2006 $3.59 USD Feb. 18, 2006 $2000.00 USD Transfer From Bank Account (Google SOC) Feb. 13, 2006 $8.48 USD Feb. 13, 2006 $18.26 USD Feb. 8, 2006 $3.59 USD Jan. 2, 2006 $18.06 USD Jan. 2, 2006 $8.38 USD Nov. 17, 2005 $3.54 USD Oct. 20, 2005 $3.59 USD Sep. 23, 2005 $8.48 USD Aug. 29, 2005 $8.38 USD Jul. 4, 2005 $18.06 USD Jun. 7, 2005 $354.52 USD From Bryce Harrington + anonymous ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Total:
Note that the odd numbers are due to paypal and sourceforge taking cuts. SourceForge takes $1.00 per donation, and PayPal takes a percentage. So generally just add $1 and round up to figure out what the original donation amount was.
Hopefully everyone that's made a donation (thank you!!) can spot the corresponding entry in the above list. If not, and it's been more than a few days, you may want to contact SourceForge about it. I'd expect this to be highly unusual though...
Also, I just received word today from the Software Freedom Conservancy (http://conservancy.softwarefreedom.org/) that they have accepted Inkscape's application to join them.
This means that once the paperwork is done, donations to Inkscape will henceforth be tax-deductable, and Inkscape will exist as a legal, non-profit entity. More info about this is available here:
