Instant Karma — a pledge and a plea, part 2

“Instant Karma’s gonna get you

Gonna knock you right on the head”

– John Lennon, Instant Karma

As I said a month ago:

"As I firmly believe freedom to be essential regardless of scale or context, I hereby pledge to donate 10 Euro to witness.org for every power of 2 in Euros donated to the Document Foundation in December 2012."

So as the number are in now lets check how far we got with that:

To everyone who donated: Thank you very much!

I donated 225$ to witness.org yesterday, which more than covers my pledge. So this is completed and I am quite happy how much we can achieve together -- you can see on the board-dicuss list, how these donations are intended to be spend in 2013. We will get lots of Hackers and Contributors to Hackfests and events and thereby make LibreOffice even better! To please keep the donations coming:

Here is how some Hackfests look like:

Hackfest Munich 2012

Hackday Brazil 2012

LibreOffice Conference 2012, Berlin

Oh, and: LibreOffice will be at FOSDEM 2013 in a few weeks like every year so far!
