I wanted to share a little side project I've been doing for fun...

Our Paypal link includes a memo field, which Inkscape's donors have used
to say some very nice things over the years, that deserve to be shared
with you all:

    http://alpha.inkscape.org/cheers/

This is a simple applet to cycle through the non-blank donation memos,
from today backwards.  It refreshes daily, although Paypal processing
adds a few days lag so it's not up to the minute.

For those of a more technical bent, the full data is at
http://alpha.inkscape.org/cheers/cheers.json.  I'm posting that in the
open in hopes it can get integrated and used in other places; no changes
are planned for the data file format, so consider that stable.

The code itself for the React.js applet I've stuck on github here:

  https://github.com/bryceharrington/cheers-carousel

I'd like to improve the styling a bit, but otherwise am done with this
for now.  Eventually this is going to be integrating into other finance
displaying scripts I'm working on... but that'll be news for some other
day.

Enjoy!

Bryce
