Hi,
|
|
|
|
I talked with these people at a recent show, and suggested they write you.
|
|
Instead they wrote back to me, but what the hey.....
|
|
|
|
I think that the Linux Documentation Project would be a worthy cause,
|
|
particularly in the case of the hardware needs.
|
|
|
|
Instead of compensating writers, I would rather fiance a portion of their
|
|
travel expenses to some technical conference, so they could meet the
|
|
developers and users directly, and so they could (perhaps) give some
|
|
talks. Just "compensating" people may require LI to fill out forms for the
|
|
IRS (I will have to look at the issue of such a low amount as $100. each),
|
|
but re-imbursing for travel expenses is definitely in the realm of LIGDF.
|
|
While some developers may not have the time or inclination to give talks,
|
|
perhaps the documentation people would.

Hi,
|
|
|
|
I am wondering if LI could give money to the LDP?
|
|
|
|
We need hardware, network connection (our main site is in NC, our CVS in Poland
|
|
a FTP in western europe would help) and we would like to compensate
|
|
some authors for their work.
|
|
|
|
We do not want to pay authors, rather give them a low compensation (about $100?)
|
|
for the time they spent writing free documentation.
|
|
|
|
We are also considering having more dedicaed servers ; any hardware gift
|
|
is welcome.
|
|
|
|
The LDP is IRS 501 C 3, non profit, and has been writing free documentation for
|
|
years.
|
|
|
|
(please Cc any reply to ldp-discuss@lists.linuxdoc.org)
