We just instantiated a new corporate policy: each time we land a new project involving a Castle component, we’ll make a donation.
(Of course, we have a back log to make up for too).
I read somewhere (don´t remember and didn´t found the website) that a framework like Castle has development costs of some million dollars. Just a suggestion: You could provide a page on Castle´s site talking about it, about each framework, providing some background for the “potencial donator”.

Just kidding, I like Castle ;)

Also, I just listened to the Hanselminutes podcast on the Eclipse Foundation. Could something like that benefit Castle?

I´ll make a donation soon.
Thanks in advance Castle Team.

@hammett: What prompted the change of heart regarding accepting donations?
April 25th, 2008 at 10:36 am
Ryan, rise of debts, fall of income

@hammett: That is unfortunate, but I shall be donating as much as I can! :-)

It’s about time, Hammett!
You’ve now got some dollars from me — and it’s worth every penny to me.
