Well, as others already pointed out the problem is that it gets soon obsolete
before you send it off to the one buying it. maybe downloadable ISOs would
help ? I mean, in the end it's all for free anyway - it points to the
growing software problem that everyone takes everything for free. Doing work
for debian and kde for free is not the problem but the problem is how do I
buy bread and butter ? :-) Most importantly how do we offer people a service
through KDE e.V. that could help the e.V. do its work better ?
As commercial distros get less and their money shrinks so will their support
for KDE in terms of employing people fulltime like Waldo. So I'm trying to
find a way that will possibly lead us to the situation where the KDE project
can finance itself better and maybe in a the future being able to employ
developers.
