Small donation to Ardour

Ardour is a hard disk recorder and digital audio workstation application. It runs on Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD. Its primary author is Paul Davis, who is also responsible for the JACK Audio Connection Kit. Ardour's intention is to provide digital audio workstation software suitable for professional use.

Donation To Ardour

Why I donated?
I just donated one dollar to Ardour, a free and open source digital audio workstation for Linux and Mac. The main developer of this project works full time on open source, supporting himself with donations.
So even though I don't really use Ardour, I still think its important that this kind of libre software exists. Since he barely reaches his monthly goals in donations, a little bit of help is always appreciated.

Benefits for Donating
You can donate toward sponsoring issues or new features. Donors can download the executables for Linux and Mac.

What Will My Donation Change?
The main developer can support his family and work on Open Source software :)

10 Euro donated to the Blender Foundation

The Blender Foundation is the force behind the popular open source 3D graphics software Blender. It is one of the few open-source applications that can compete with its commercial equivalents. Though according to Wikipedia it is still mostly used by hobbyists rather than amateur or professional users.

Why I Donated?
I don't use Blender myself but I really want the project to grow for other people to enjoy it. Blender is one of those flagship open source projects that really make a difference. Artists can use it instead of pirating commercial software or paying massive amounts of money for Maya or 3D Max.

Benefits For Donating
No real perks here but it feels good when you donate to a valuable project :)

What Will My Donation Change? 
Revenues from their e-shop and donations will be used to pay 4 developers to work full time on Blender. They use some extra funds to organize events and keep their website up and running.
