donation question...

Hi Guys,

not sure if that the right spot to post this but feel free to move it!

I'm using Zoneminder now for some thime here at work and of course i love it...I donated a few times alreday so don#t feel bad using that great peace of software!

Over time i showed a lot of geeks like myself what can be done and a lot of them using zoneminder now aswell...

A couple of weeks ago i showed this to a guy i meet my setup and since then he begs me to install something like that in his company...He is willing to pay for the machine and cam's etc and my time to setup the hole system!

BUT!

I would like to make sure that the people who make this baby work and get all the nice new features in get a piece of the cake so they can continue!

So, here it is...
What sould i do ? You guys are fine getting more donations ? but who should get them ? should i split them between the few guys i donated before ? equal parts ?

I know that sound odd, but put it this ways...If i would setup a system like that using a software i had to buy the person whould pay cash for it...so i think they should pay somehow!

Ideas ?

Thanks for the question and the charitable intent

I would essentially say that you can donate to whomever you like really. So if you are using James' Windows thingy then donate to him, if it's the LiveCD then Ross, Corey for the rpms etc etc. However if it's easier logistically then you can just donate some to me via the normal routes with an instruction on how to split it and I will do the rest.

If you want it to be all officially accounted for I can give you receipts and/or invoices.
