June 2008: OS4 Developer Donations Nominations.- Closes Midnight Today

Okay, Please feel free to nominate any Amiga OS4 Developer who has a paypal donate account.

Jahc has asked not to be included this month.

Please, lets get this first one off to a good start, give us your input.

Thanks.

Edit: Developers can nominate themselves, or PM me privately if they are too shy to do so publicly.

@Mikey_C

I'd like to nominate Edgar Schwan for Cygnix and for the several invaluable ports. He gave me a tool in the form of FontForge that helps a lot in my daily business.

Thanks Edgar!

@lazi

Thanks for your input. Anyone else?

@Mikey_C

I would like to nominate Tuomas Hokka ("TSK"). He has already uploaded 20 original apps to OS4 Depot.

@PEB

I'd just like to give another vote for Edgar, his stuff are just plain awsome!

@Mikey_C

OWB comes to mind...

Jerry

@AmiGame

That's Joerg and Andrea - Right?

@Mikey_C

Quote:And Edgar Schwan (he ported some of the libraries OWB needs to OS4, I just built the shared object versions from his sources), Richard Drummond (OS4 SDL port) and George Sokianos (OWB bookmarks).

@Mikey_C

I'd like to second (or third) Edgar's nomination and also propose ssolie for his excellent Ranger program.

@Mikey_C

I propose CentaurZ who wrote ADripper and context menu editor and Corto who wrote MUI tutorials, WoW and PointRider !

@Mikey_C

I nominate Neil Cafferkey who(m?) wrote prism2.device.

@Mikey_C

I nominate Hans de Ruiter for his work on improving MiniGL for OS4 as well as a replacement "animation.datatype" class.

Would be nice if all the people nominating would also post a link to where the nominees keep their paypal donation link :)

Good idea. Quite a few of them can be found on the underutilized amifund website.

Afxgroup has also been involved in a number of porting efforts and I still have Amishots running in the background. Which reminds me, I never got round to trying out LinCity NG.

I also like the look of Rigo's IDE for C/C++.

Is that really a problem? It still ends up in the same PayPal account.

@Hans

Quote:But in most cases not the same amount,?for example if someone from an Euro country would send me a donation via AmiFund PayPal would deduct about 5% of it as fees for the useless EUR -> USD -> EUR currency conversations. In all other cases, except for donations from the USA or other countries using USD, the currency conversations fees would be about 5% (currency of the sender -> USD -> EUR) instead of 2.5% (currency of the sender -> EUR).

Hi @Mikey_C

Thanks for your input. Anyone else?

The ABC-shell developer -- HNL !

@Mikey_C
Stephen Fellner and his fantastic DvPlayer.
