Theo is quick to criticize "Americans" for the glaring lack of hardware documentation. That is unfortunately a common Canadian attitude. But I want to ask, that since:
most of our donations do not come from the country where we operate
Where do most of your users come from? Where does most of your funding come from?
Slightly related...
People will give to registered non-profits because they get tax breaks, yeah, but they also give because there is a sense of accountability. People like to know that their money is going to be used according to how they donated it, instead of to buy beer and pizza (essential as they may or may not be for software development). With no financial disclosure and third-party financial auditing process, where is that assurance to the donator that their money is being used in a certain manner?
