Re: SliTaz association - Cotisation poll/sondage

Hi all,
Sorry for my simplyfied English :-)

I am on this mailing list since almost 2 years, because I agree with sentence I read on libordux.org : 'Think globally, act locally'.
As I wrote in the chat (irc.toile-libre.org : #salon slitaz), Slitaz is, for me, more than a GNU/Linux OS, Slitaz has a spirit (refeering to Hakim BEY' book TAZ, available on wikipedia).

Slitaz needs money and (maybe, everybody hope so) goods guys and good ideas from all over the world, to be maintained, to grow-up ... .
Money for you Christophe and other guys who have spend a lot of money to paid the servers and ..., and for the future of Slitaz.
Good guys to help Slitaz, to be something like a democratic and representative association of those users (individuals or companies).

So, I am not able to be a member, but I ready to donate for Slitaz AND BTW, sponsoring new members (anybody who wants to be member) with my donation.I want my donation pay for peoples who have not money enough to be members. 
Create a waiting memberslist, date per date (first subscribe first on the list), each X euros of donation = a new member.
I don't believe it's harder to create a GNU/Linux OS from scratch... :-)
It could be harder to manage ... :-)

Cordialement,

Pierre
