As long as you don't make me itemize the receipts for every ethernet cable purchased, I wouldn't object to putting some summary information up. The bulk of what's donated still goes into "lots and lots of small bits", e.g. ethernet cards, CDR drives, quickcams, sound cards, etc. and it's difficult to itemize. We basically just buy whatever PC bits various motivated developers ask for, within reason, and ship it off. What's not spent on that goes to pay for things like artwork or occasional bits of custom programming (still looking for someone willing (and capable) to take on the egcs compiler upgrade, BTW :) or just sits in the bank waiting for an appropriate use to come along. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
