I think I sent a thank-you to everyone who donated, although a couple
bounced back because of full mailboxes.  If you didn't get a note from
me please accept my apology, there were frankly so many that I may have
missed some.  More donations are always welcome, but -- the hosting bill
should be taken care of for this year and next at least.

Some expressed embarrassment at making small donations.  The most common
donation is around $5, and that's just the way I like it.  Lots of
people pitching in a little amount each, together adding up to a
substantial amount.

For those who are relatively new I should explain how the site works.
It used to be hosted by volunteers, which always started out well
inevitably ran into problems.  After the big crash I decided to pay for
hosting, but didn't want to foot the bill, and didn't want to hassle
with advertising or otherwise trying to generate a profit from the site.
So I decided to see how a user supported site would work and I'm happy
to report that it works outstandingly well.

I got a few offers to help out and I'll be following up on those in the
near future.

Anyway, give yourself a pat on the back and keep the good technical
discussions coming!
