30 May 2011 11:17. Edited 1 times. (Edit, Permalink) I am going to trial a new system where anyone that donates money towards the project will gain early access to future releases as a reward. This serves one main purpose: Donators that request a specific feature gain access to that feature as soon as it is available. So far anyone that has donated doesn't get anything in return - so I'm doing this for you, as my way of saying thanks! It would make sense that the more you donate, the longer you have access to these pre-release versions for. However, this is very much still a new idea, and I need to consider exactly how it would work. Suggestions are certainly welcome. To everyone that has already donated something: you will receive a pre-release version later this week. And thanks! Included page "inc:signature" does not exist (create it now) |

30 May 2011 13:46. Edited 1 times. (Edit, Permalink) Are you referring to people that contribute by reporting bugs, requesting features, posting in the forum & editing the wiki? Agreed, they should gain some kind of compensation too for their support. I built a private website and invited a few people to it for that reason, but ended up not using it as it's main purpose was for testing Mac compatibility (which isn't as important any more). The people I invited were only those that had actively posted on the forums several times in the past or reported bugs / requested features. Might still be a good idea to stick with that after all. But in that case what do people get if they donate and are extremely active on the website? ;-) Included page "inc:signature" does not exist (create it now) |
