That posting states: I heard some vague numbers, likely in the 4 digits EUR range per month but real figures are only known by one person.
For at least three years people were donating money and sponsors were paying for website ads while the money was not flowing into the project, where it went to I can only guess.
If this is true, it means the people donating to this project have been ripped off.
Can someone confirm this?
What - the statement on Dag's website or your assumption? ;-)
Rip-off is a harsh word. Ok, so I donated nothing so far, but still, this is a bit unfair to the rest of the team who are (now) scrambling to get their act together.
A case could be made wether it was negligent to leave that matter hanging for so long - but I'm glad that the rest of the CentOS team is - at least publicly - not fuming with hate and anger but rather looking forward.
