I'd like to help out the cause but can't find any paypal donate buttons or any other means to chip in some spare change.

TIA,

That's weird. I'm a dev, but can't devote time to the project so I thought I would help ensure that these guys have incentive to continue the work they have done already. I also wanted to speak to them about doing a related project and wanted to show that I was serious about committing some resources to it by providing an initial donation.

I'd appreciate it if the admin/project lead touched base with me on the above.

Thanks.

Yes it is weird but not highly important for OA i figure.

After time you just get used to it Cheesy

In fact, the OA main page is one of the few pages that will display instantly on a web browser regardless of your connection status. Me has a 33.6k connection, I notice these things Cheesy

haha! Too funny. Well missbehaving, it looks like you are a forum MVP- please put in a good word and a request from me to be contacted by the project admin if you could. I couldn't pm them due to being a new member.
I have $ burning a hole in my pocket Smiley

Here's an excellent post from Coding Horror that discusses reasons money are not effective in opensource projects:

I cannot agree more (although I'm not participating in any projects now).
