Welcome to the New Year - here's £2015
Posted by Steve Revill Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:42:00 GMT
In order to welcome in 2015, RISC OS Open would like to launch another initiative to help spur on development. For the whole of January 2015, we will match any donation* into the RISC OS Open Bounty Scheme. Simply find a bounty (or bounties) that looks worthy and we will also donate the same amount to it.
At the moment, we have:
- Compiler improvements to help developers to get the most out of new hardware
- File system improvements to support big files, big hard drives and partitions
- Improvements to the built-in !Paint application
- Updates to our USB support to bring it more up-to-date
There is also a “RISC OS General” bounty for general donations to RISC OS Open, but we will not be matching donations into this. If any new bounties are added this month, they will also qualify for this offer.
We wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year and we look forward to all the great new developments we will be seeing in the RISC OS community!
* Up to the first £2015 donated across all qualifying bounties in the month specified.
Also note: we will match any of the recurring (monthly) donations that come in this month, spreading the total across the other open bounties.
A great incentive guys. I just hope enough people look at the news section, instead of the forums section to know it’s available.
There is less than one week to go of this offer so get your donations in before it’s too late!
