Now that Barry is stepping down, where should donations be sent?

to contributors

Sometime ago, Barry asked that all donation links for him be removed from Puppy Linux websites. But much earlier, he had encouraged devs and contributors operating a for-PuppyLinux website to have their own donation buttons. There is a donation button at puppylinux.org - this helps cover the cost of hosting.

Thanks raffy. Barry always seemed happy to get my meager contributions over the years. Looking back I think I donated more than I ever paid for Windows. :D Worth every penny to have a system I never have to worry about. I have been using a Zazzle online store to sell Puppy merch and sending any earnings to Barry, I will now send to puppylinux.org instead.

tubeguy, would you be willing to PM me Barry's donation link...? I feel I should give him something more than words for what he's given me... ;) I'd like to do it while I still have the opportunity, you know?

restored

See here, where Barry said he restored the donation link (to a new paypal account), but I can't find it.
