As I said in that thread, we _don't_ have a dire need for money to keep hosting the site. But we do sometimes need money for other things (like conference travel), and we rely on services (like accounting and legal advice) provided by the Software Freedom Conservancy which are free to us, but funded ultimately by donations. I went into detail on our project activities and finances recently at: http://public-inbox.org/git/20170202024501.57hrw4657tsqerqq@sigill.intra.peff.net/ If you are interested in contributing financially, you can either donate to the Git project (10% of which goes to Conservancy's general fund, and the rest ends up in Git's account): https://git-scm.com/sfc Or you can donate directly to Conservancy's general fund: https://sfconservancy.org/donate/ They also have an annual Supporter program, which includes the all-important t-shirt: https://sfconservancy.org/supporter/ Through February 13th, there's an anonymous donor matching all Supporter signups and renewals, so any donation you make before then will go twice as far. -Peff
