Re: time to get a new digest writer

Don't drink and write, honey. Please tell me, where are the ads on this side? Do you even have a slightest idea that the digest is brought to you by a brave man who spends nothing but his free time on this? Instead of having a walk in the sunshine? Or surfing the sea?
Oh, was this your application to take over the digest writing? Sorry, then. Not.

Hey, that's not a bad idea.
We should have ads on this site. All the proceeds go towards the KDE project. Might be a good income source to help offset some of the costs associated with the project. Or to help the programmers out financially that need it.

We could either have banner ads, or google adwords, or something similar. Could the project developers in charge please vote on this?

We discussed things like that, but there are many issues involved. Legal (we can't earn money) and social - do we want to let MS advertise here? Do we like google enough to let em make money on us? How does it affect our image? Etc.

We decided to use advertising as little as possible.
