Recently Bountysource was acquired by Canya:

We were really fast to withdraw the money donated to the NethServer project and issues.
I think that we all agree it wasn’t the right way to collect money for the project :frowning:

@giacomo has cashed-out 56 euros, how can we use this money?

Some suggestions:

  • a beer at Fosdem
  • an Amazon gift (or two) as trophy for a challenge here in community.
  • what else?

A shirt for the user of the year 2017 with the sentence

printed on it.
Also the nethesis team can sign it.

Great idea Michael, …but there are more than one Nethserverian that deserves such gift! I can’t find just one…

I think you can buy 2 or 3 t-shirts with EUR56,- :smiley:

What we can think of is giving an incentive at NethServer community conference? It would make more impact for the member(s) that deserve the extra attention.

We have recently added to the core the yum-cron package as well

What do you think if we donate the whole amount to @stephdl ?

Honestly I thought about paying a beer to all of you but … I forgot it!
