Happy £2,015 - the results...

Posted by Steve Revill Sun, 01 Feb 2015 12:17:00 GMT

Drum roll please…

What a fantastic response! We at ROOL would like to say a massive thank you to the community for your support and donations. We’ve actually exceeded our goals and received a total of £2,270 into the qualifying bounties, as well as a further £235 from monthly recurring donations and donations to the “RISC OS General” bounty.

We have now put our matching donations into the qualifying pots. Because you were all so generous, we couldn’t match the total so we’ve decided the fairest solution was to spread our £2,015 contribution proportionately into each pot, donating a further 88.78% of what you donated in January into each bounty.
