Just 8 days ago I stated that, if I could pull together just $4,000 in contributions, I would Open Source (under the GPL) all of the applications and games you see on this site. As of about 10 minutes ago, we have hit $4,001 (and some change). That’s right. We pulled it off. Because we are awesome. We showed that we, as a community, could rally together to fund a developer working full time on Open Source applications. Now What? Now things get fun. Tomorrow I will be updating this website and releasing free (as in beer) builds of all of the software available here (including Linux Tycoon, Illumination Software Creator, etc.).
