About SME Server |
28 |
================ |
29 |
|
30 |
SME Server is the leading Linux distribution for small and medium |
31 |
enterprises. SME Server is brought to you by Koozali Foundation, Inc., |
32 |
a non-profit corporation that exists to provide marketing and legal support |
33 |
for SME Server. |
34 |
|
35 |
SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License and |
36 |
is only possible through the efforts of the SME Server community. |
37 |
However, the availability and quality of SME Server is dependent on |
38 |
meeting our expenses, such as hosting costs, server hardware, etc. |
39 |
|
40 |
As such, we ask for a donation to offset costs and fund further development. |
41 |

a) If you are a school, a church, a non-profit organisation or an individual |
43 |
using SME Server for private purposes, we would appreciate you to contribute |
44 |
within your means toward the costs associated with hosting, maintenance and |
45 |
development. |
46 |
|
47 |
b) If you are a company or an integrator and you are deploying SME Server in |
48 |
the course of your work to generate revenue, we expect you to make a donation |
49 |
commensurate with the level of revenue you generate and the number of servers |
50 |
your have in the field. Please, help the project |
51 |
|
52 |
