Aside of the + GnuPG development was mainly financed by donations. Aside of the large donors Linux Foundation, Stripe, Facebook, and First Look Media, we received a lot of individual donations. Our fundraising [[file:camp2017.org][campaign]] in 2017 also raised about 5000 Euro in monthly recurring donations. *Many thanks to all supporters* - If you are using [[../software/index.org][GnuPG]], [[../software/libgcrypt/index.org][Libgcrypt]], [[../software/gpgme/index.org][GPGME]], or [[https://www.gpg4win.org][Gpg4win]] and would like - to help with development and maintenance please consider making a - donation. + Fortunately, and this is still not common with free software, we + have now established a way of financing the development while + keeping all our software free and freely available for everyone. -** Ways to donate + Our model is similar to the way RedHat manages RHEL and Fedora: + Except for the actual binary of the MSI installer for Windows and + client specific configuration files, all the software is available + under the GNU GPL and other Open Source licenses. Thus customers + may even build and distribute their own version of the software as + long as they do not use our trademark /GnuPG VS-Desktop^{\reg}/. - We accept donations via Paypal or by using SEPA transactions. - Donating Bitcoins is also possible.
