Fixing bugs and adding new features takes a lot of time and effort. To show

your appreciation for the work and motivate developers to continue working on
|

Vim please send a donation.
|
|
|
|
The money you donated will be mainly used to help children in Uganda. See
|
|
|uganda|. But at the same time donations increase the development team
|
|
motivation to keep working on Vim!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS *sponsor-faq* *register-faq*
|
|
|
|
Why should I give money?~
|
|
|
|
If you do not show your appreciation for Vim, the development team will be
|
|
less motivated to fix bugs and add new features. They will do something else
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How much money should I send?~
|
|
|
|
That is up to you. The more you give, the more children will be helped.
|
|
An indication for individuals that use Vim at home: 10 Euro per year. For
|
|
professional use: 30 Euro per year per person.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How can I send money?~
|
|
|
|
See |send-money|. Check the web site for the most recent information:
|
|
http://www.vim.org/sponsor/
|
|
|
|
|
|
I cannot afford to send money, may I still use Vim?~
|
|
|
|
Yes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How about Charityware?~
|
|
|
|
Currently the Vim donations go to |uganda| anyway. Thus it doesn't matter if
|
|
you sponsor Vim or Kuwasha.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I donated $$$, now please add feature XYZ!~
|
|
|
|
There is no direct relation between your donation and the work developers do.
|
|
Otherwise you would be paying for work and we would have to pay tax over the
|
|
donation. If you want to hire one of the developers for specific work,
|
|
contact them directly, don't use the donation system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Are the donations tax deductible?~
|
|
|
|
Possibly. Please refer to |Kuwasha| for this question.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can you send me a bill?~
|
|
|
|
No, because there is no relation between the money you send and the work that
|
|
is done. But a receipt is possible.
