        <!-- People have beenshowing up on the #foxtrotgps IRC channel
             and really insisting that they want to offer some financial
             support for the project.

             It feels a little strange to accept donations personally
             when most of the really nice work is actually coming from
             the community, but, after thinking it through...:
             there are actually financial costs that I bear personally
             to keep the project going, such as the costs of keeping
             the domain registered and the server running, and I guess
             it's reasonable to let people help me defray those costs
             if they want to. So, following Raphael Herzog's lead,
             let's try a `project maintainership' Flattr button.

      cooperation and fostering community innovation.
