Hello Kip, since your name comes up wherever I look about ZFS development on FreeBSD, I thought to send this mail to you directly as well. My question is concerning sponsoring the FreeBSD project and ZFS development in particular. I know I am just a relatively poor person so I can't contribute much (maybe on the order of 20-30 euro a month), but I keep seeing FreeBSD core team members keep mentioning "we value donations of all sizes", so what the hell :) Anyways, in the past I have directed my donations to The FreeBSD Foundation, if I want to ensure that as much of my money as possible goes directly to benefit the development of ZFS support on FreeBSD, should I continue donating to the foundation or should I be sending donations directly to specific developers? Thank you - Dan Naumov
