We use open source and free software everyday, lots of us use it for our business to make money, lots use it for our desktops, softwares, etc. I think that we have taken for granted the work involved in keeping software free, I know I have. So I figured I’d write a post to remind everyone to help out a lil bit.
I have now changed my donation page to suggest 2 of my favorite open source software providers that if you use this site, you probably use these softwares. Configserver and CentOS. I know there are more but for now lets start with those
Configserver is the one I want to focus on more at this time. I figure centos already gets tons of donations so if you can only donate to one donate to configserver. They make some awesome scripts that are being used everyday by probably thousands of servers. It wouldnt hurt to shoot them about $5-10 a month if you are using their software for your profitable business.
Centos donation page is a bit funny, Im afraid they would get pissed if you send less then their suggested amounts so I may just change that one lol.
But anyway, for real, if you are using open source software for your profitable business no reason not to shoot them a few bucks.
