[Nix-dev] Funding campaign for "Get rid of the Perl dependency" in Nix

[Christian Theune]

Hi,

don’t worry about cleaning up after me. We did this on purpose without knowing whether we could get a proper receipt or not. It’s our issue for this time. Next time I’d be happy to send the money to the foundation. Thanks for the offer, but I don’t want time to be wasted on cleaning up my mess. :)

BTW: I don’t care about non-profit. I just care about proper book keeping. ;)

Cheers,
Christian
