I'm using debian quite heavily, and nobody asked me to pay, so I didn't.
Why should I bother what happens to the money of other people? I don't
know personally any of the mayor debian activists, but I like the work
they do. So why should I think they're trying to do something less
honorable? Others use the list to announce their products, and while this
consists just in two lines, I think that's OK. Why always suppose the
worst? If anybody destroys the debian project, we just shoot him, that's
OK too ;-)
