However, it would be nice to see more frequent updates just about
fundraising progress, which is what this suggestion focuses on. Those
who are particularly interested in this should be encouraged to donate
the funds necessary so that we can start paying Mav a salary. Otherwise,
it's unfair to expect anyone to assume that burden.
Actually please don't donate money for that - giving me money will not increase
the number of hours in the day or reduce the number of hours I need to sleep
(Wikipedia/Wikimedia is nearly a second full time job for me). Also, doing so
would only add a small incentive for me to do more work in this area since I
strongly suspect that such pay would pale in comparison to what I now receive
as a GIS specialist (thus I would have to keep my day job). A full time server
admin is far more important.
More voluneers welcome in the finance department. :)
