Donations can take many forms. You can donate your time in code, either by sending it to me for review, or cloning the git repository and publishing your changes (to be eventually merged back into my tree). You can donate your time in testing, documentation, artwork, indexing, etc. Or, if you don't feel that you possess the time or skills required for the above forms of donation, you can donate money instead. Money donated will help to ensure that I have the free-time, good nutrition, and enthusiasm required to implement new features. It can also be a more palpable way of saying "Thanks for caring." or "Job well done!"

; What does freedom have to do with this software?
Non is /free software/. This means, briefly, that you are free use it as
*you* wish, free to examine and adapt the source code, free to share it with
your friends, and free to publish your changes to the source code.
Furthermore, Non is /copyleft/, which means that you are free from the threat
of some other entity taking over and denying you the above freedoms. The
/free/ part of /free software/ doesn't refer to price any more than the
/free/ in /free speech/ does.
