How donations work

Introduction

Donations to the ScalaFX project are processed through Paypal. Funds are made to and under the control of the project leader (currently Stephen Chin). We are not a non-profit organization at this time, so you cannot deduct taxes on your donation. If you are still interested in contributing, read on.

What Donations Are Used For

Donations will be used for any of the following purposes:

Spot incentives for contributing members (books, software, devices, beer)
Travel and expenses for qualifying speaking engagements (need to get the word out)
Hosting and advertising costs for infrastructure

What Is In It For Me? (And My Company)

A good feeling that you are helping make the world a better place (or rewarding those who do).

If you are a company and you want something more tangible, please contact Stephen Chin to become a project sponsor. With a qualifying project sponsorship, you will get the following benefits:

Promotional placement on the website, documentation, and all presentations
Priority defect fixes
24/7 Support (basically the cell phone number of one of the lead developers)
