José - donations?

Hi José ,

Do you have a way for us to send you donations? For example, a PayPal account? I would love to send you something for all of the incredible help that you have shown to me and others. It seems a shame that you have gone unrewarded for all of your hard work.

Hi Paul

Your idea is good, but in my opinion the best way to give the right acknowledgment to Jose', is to put always his name in the About Box of all [our] softwares that use Jose''s based knowledge.

I agree with Eros : When passion is present ... impossible becomes possible
Jose''s main reason is passion and our help is to share his work/name outside the PB enclave.

Hi Paul,

I have the simplest PayPal personal account possible (no bank account, no credit card) that I opened because a PBer sent me a donation using my email address. I never have asked for donations, but of course I'm not going to refuse them if someone wants to send me one. This will be like refusing a gift from a friend. But the best reward is to know that others find your work useful.

José,

Just out of curiosity are you retired?

Unfortunately not. I still have to wait at least 8 years. I'm 57 years old.

José,

You are not alone, that's the same for me (I am one year older than you).

And I must still earn my living

Hi José, I have sent the money to your listed email address: ajr@fa2.de PayPal says that you need to perform some action first - they are sending you an email with the instructions. :-)

Got it. Thanks you very much!

Ah nice to see others have the same idea. I hope I wasn't the first and am sure I won't be the last.
Your contributions have taken my development to new level.
