Haiku Code Drive 2008
Written by Karl vom Dorff   
Friday, 16 May 2008

Announced yesterday, Haiku Inc. and its volunteers are starting a fundraising campaign (May 15th - 29th) in order to raise money to fund student developer projects that would benefit Haiku. Similar to the GSOC, several students who applied to do Haiku projects for GSOC and weren't selected, applied for Haiku's own summer of code!

The stipends (if fulfilled) are $2500. Haiku is asking community members, corporate entities, and anyone with an interest in Haiku to donate. You can read more about the applicants and their proposals at Haiku's website, and make a donation there, or from the module on the right hand side of our website. Excellent endevour, hope it works out!

Hi Karl.

Thank you for spreading the word. smilies/smiley.gif

The DONATE button seems to be pointing to the wrong address though. Can you just point it to the following URL instead?

http://www.haiku-os.org/community/haiku-code-drive-2008/donate

Thanks!
