A note of caution before you donate. Are you donating to the right place?
SourceForge.net hosts over 70,000 different Open Source projects and has over 700,000 registered users. There may be some overlap among
user names and project names, both on the site, and between the site and the rest of the world. We recommend that you confirm that you are
donating money to the desired place before you make your donation (is this developer a member of the right project, or is the project the same
one you downloaded the software from?). If you have questions, please contact the developer or project in question before making your donation.
I live outside the United States; can I still contribute money to SourceForge.net?
Yes, since the SourceForge.net Donation System accepts donations through PayPal, we are able to accept contributions from many different
countries (including the United States, Canada, Germany, Japan, China, United Kingdom, Denmark, and others). PayPal will handle the currency
conversion on your behalf. Additional information regarding currency conversion will be provided by PayPal after you have reached step 3 in
the donation process.
Is my donation tax-deductible?
To the best of our knowledge, no. In the United States, donations are only tax-deductible when they are made to non-profit organizations
that are permitted to provide tax exemptions by the government (such as 501(c)3 charities). Most of the projects hosted on SourceForge.net
are not registered as 501(c)3 charities. Please contact the project in question if you have specific questions. If you live outside the
United States and you believe this donation may be tax-deductible, please consult local tax laws and/or a tax attorney; to the best of our
knowledge, donations to Armagetron Advanced are not tax-deductible anywhere in the world.
How will my contribution be recognized?
A Supporters page (this is a publicly-accessible page) of donors and their comments is maintained for Armagetron Advanced (armagetronad). If you opted-out
of display of your donation on the Supporters page, or did not login prior to making your donation, your name will not appear on that page.
