Hi all,

I got this in which is really really interesting to me in terms of how 
small business that uses OpenSource can pay something back.

The link to Marta's  FOSDEM talk is below which I greatly enjoyed. This 
is something very close to my heart.

A topic for an upcoming LUG meeting perhaps?

Cheers,

Alex

Hello all,
I'm posting to this list, because more people might be interested. I'm 
willing to make a donation from my company to OpenEmbedded (as a part of 
an initiative I talk more at [1]). Companies need invoices or other 
proofs for payments, as most of you know. I then contacted the SPI 
treasurer to work out details. Nothing happened, same after a follow-up 
message.

This is a pity, because a company cannot make a donation in such 
situation. It is also pushing to become a member of YP instead, where 5k 
is quite a large sum for a really small company. I would really prefer 
to give to OE. Whom can work this out?

Kind regards,
Marta
