More importantly, if you had not decided to base Rocky on Red Hat but instead on Debian or Ubuntu or Gentoo, would you have raised a single penny?
It seems Rocky has at least 11 sponsors that donate large sums of money annually to the project, would they be getting that cake if not based on Red Hat?
While you're at it, please consider throwing a couple of million towards the KDE project every year.
Rocky offers spins featuring KDE but according to Nate, project manager for KDE, they are hurting for cash, he estimates he needs at least a million a year to get KDE where he wants it.
Also, i am working on a Rocky rebuild that I plan on marketing as a direct competitor to Rocky, basically i take Rocky, rebrand it and release it with the promise that it will be exactly like Rocky just with a different name.
Do you think we can work out a sponsorship deal where Rocky throws a few bucks my way every year.I don't need a lot, about 750k a year should do it.
Let me know when I can expect the first check.
