Donation link is broken

Post by generalram »

I want to help this project out. I learned as many PCs and operating systems as I could growing up. The donation link on the main page goes to Sourceforge with a 404 link. I assume you moved off Sourceforge, and need to change the link?

Thanks

Hi, generalram. Glad to see you here :) There is a silence here, since old forum was died because of a server
crash at http://os2world.com at the end of 2012. I restored everything that was possible to restore from archive.org, but not
everything.

Yes, we moved from sourceforge to github a year ago. Also, the donation service form sf.net is no more available.
We probably, will create a project page at http://www.patreon.com for donations in the future, but not yet. Also, I have a Paypal
page, but I am not sure if it is suitable for donations. So, I need to work this problem out.
WBR, valery

OK thanks. I'll donate some money when you get a working link. I know money is limited so is mine as I am disabled, but I want to help in some way.

Today, we made a donations page at http://www.osfree.org/doku/en:donate. Here we detailed the donation methods (currently, via a Patreon page: https://patreon.com/osfree/ or a bitcoin wallet, 1JZRh6xM3WWzesWzig2m8MdTDeCtAzDKQ4). We posted a news item at the osFree home page: http://www.osfree.org/doku/en:news:news-2019-09-03. Please become our patron, or use a one-time donation with Bitcoin.
