Donations in US; software maintenance in EU #158

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
http://freearc.org/Donations.aspx makes it possible to donate to the project. 

Donations seems to be a normal part of the US economy. In the EU countries
where I have worked, companies cannot get tax deduction for donations.
Companies can, however, get tax deduction for software maintenance. I will
therefore encourage you to add a Paypal button in which companies can buy
software maintenance at whatever price the company decides. You will not
need to give the companies any special treatment, but you will need to give
the companies an invoice of some sort. Maybe Paypal can already generate that?

It allows you to buy software support via Plimus

We will look into providing the same option via PayPal

You are right: Plimus even accepts Paypal.

I never heard of Plimus before and simply assumed it was yet another money 
transfer
system. So please make it more explicit on the web page that you can buy 
support (and
make it possible to increase the amount).
