Update:
Thank you to all who contributed. This year's fundraiser was a success in less than 12 hours. We truly are grateful for all of our supporters.
Original post:
As some of you may know, last year we switched to our own server after 14 years of having server space donated to us by Peeron. We humbly ask our users and project contributers to help defray the server costs. In the interest of full transparency, here are the details:
Server host: Dreamhost
Server plan: VPS (2 GB RAM, 60 GB Disk)
Server cost: $330/yr
Domain registrar: Dreamhost
Domain cost: $15.99/yr
We are asking for $345 in total and have chosen GoFundMe as the donation method. Since we do not have a registered organization and no bank account, Orion Pobursky will be handling the funds after the campaign ends. The campaign will end as soon as we reach our goal and we do not want to collect any excess.
Thank you to all those who contribute.
