The FreeBSD Foundation is probably the organization which is best equipped to do this: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/ The FreeBSD Foundation is registered as a 501(c) non-profit organization (for non-U.S. people, 501(c) is a section of the U.S. tax code which designates an organization as non-profit, which gives some tax benefits). They seem to be best equipped to receive donations, and fund specific FreeBSD work. These contributions would be tax-deductible, which is one incentive to donate. -- Craig Rodrigues http://crodrigues.org rodrigc@crodrigues.org
