8 <p>repo.or.cz is sponsored by the people who run it. As the one who started
9 out paying 100% of the costs when we migrated away from externally sponsored
10 internet connectivity (though more members of the admin team joined in within
11 days), please allow me to explain why.
13 <p>I find aggressive donation drives really annoying. I don't want to expose
14 people to more of them unless there really is no other option. I can afford to
15 keep repo.or.cz running and I don't need anything in return. I don't think
16 repo.or.cz should need to care about costs, nor should it make any profit.
18 <p>I will split costs with people who feel the same way. All people who are
19 covering part of the cost will be listed here. It will be a small list because
20 coordinating with more than a few people is tedious.
22 <p>If you want to thank us for running repo.or.cz, please do it by paying it
23 forward: do something nice for someone else. All details are up to you.
