In the same spirit as when @lunduke declared ‘Linux Thursdays’, I’m hoping that if we were to declare the ‘Solstinox’ as the time of the season to donate to your favourite Free/Libre Open Source Software projects, it might give a little boost of money to help with further development and improvements and also show the developers that their work is appreciated.
The ‘Solstinox FLOSS Appreciation Donation’ campaign is just a working title for it–perhaps someone can come up with something catchier?
@rugk Ah yes, hadn't really considered it from the non-native English speaking perspective :/ It was mainly just a way to not have to say 'The Summer and Winter Solstices and the two Equinoxes as well' :)
@phelion @lunduke
I like the idea. I think the main problems are visibility and simplicity (to donate).
I'd love to see donation buttons to important (and invisible) projects in @purism 's PureStore, in addition to a pay-what-you-want model for the apps. Creates visibility and simplicity 😀

@phelion @lunduke And what should "Solstinox" stand for? How did you came up with this hard-to-write/spell word??
