40     About SME Server
41     ================
42     SME Server is the leading Linux distribution for small and medium
43     enterprises. SME Server is brought to you by Koozali Foundation, Inc.,
44     a non-profit corporation that exists to provide marketing and legal support
45     for SME Server.
46    
47     SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License and
48     is only possible through the efforts of the SME Server community.
49    
50     However, the availability and quality of SME Server is dependent on
51     meeting our expenses, such as hosting costs, server hardware, etc.
52    
53     As such, we ask for a donation to offset costs and fund further development.
54    
55 jpp 1.4 a) If you are a school, a church, a non-profit organisation or an
56     individual using SME Server for private purposes, we would appreciate
57     you to contribute within your means toward the costs associated with
58     hosting, maintenance and development.
59    
60     b) If you are a company or an integrator and you are deploying SME
61     Server in the course of your work to generate revenue, we expect you to
62     make a donation commensurate with the level of revenue you generate and
63     the number of servers your have in the field. Please, help the project
64 unnilennium 1.3
65     Please visit https://wiki.koozali.org/Donate to donate.

87     The work that has gone into getting SME 10 to this stage has been enormous, an attempt to list and detail the work that has been done in recent months would not do justice to the effort contributed by the following,
