Actually, it’s a big OVAL orange button (heh!)... and when I clicked on it, it goes directly to a Gallium bounty donation page. How do you donate to fund the servers, specifically? The interesting thing is, it costs about US$600 (as I recall, Euros are worth slightly more than US dollars, so I’m rounding up the dollar amount) per year to fund the servers. How many people use and believe in Haiku? If it were 600 people, it would only cost $1 ea. Say, it were only 300 people... that’s $2 ea. Say it was only 150 people... that’s $3 ea. Only 75 people? A whopping $4 ea. And, if it were... *gasp!* just 37.5 people... we’d each have to fork over $5 ea.
... or 0.5859375 people just $11 each? Somewhere in that paragraph your math was abducted and replaced by a dyscalculic doppelganger. Or maybe slicing people just thinly enough indeed yields a greater total than expected. ;-) CU, IngoYou're funny. Thanks for the laugh. I was simply trying the "halve the math" (thus doubling the amount paid by each person), but beyond a certain point (75 people), it goes into fractions, so the sensibility of it goes out the window.
Latre! Luposian
