Hi, I'm Oliver. I'm the main developer of Tridactyl.

Any donations received here will help to motivate me to work on Tridactyl and make our next Tridactyl programming retreat happen sooner and be even better than the last. We spent a week in the Peak District for our previous retreat and, in addition to having a marvellous time, got a lot of stuff done for Tridactyl. It simply would not have happened without donations from the community and so we are very grateful for any support offered.

I currently work on Tridactyl for 1-2 days a week (excluding time spent responding to issues and other requests for help). I'd really like to be able to increase that to 3-4 days a week, but at the moment I have to take on other consulting work to ensure that I can still afford to eat and have a roof over my head. Your donations will directly support that goal.

All donors receive an email once a quarter updating them on changes in Tridactyl and our plans for the next few months. People who donate at least $10 a month will get an email of tips and tricks or a longer tutorial on something to do with Tridactyl about once a month - you can see an example here.

If your corporation would like to sponsor Tridactyl, contact me and I can send you an invoice and proudly display your firm's logo on our readme on GitHub.

If I reach this number, the country I'm living in can't deport me for being too poor. It would be amazing if Tridactyl alone could protect me from that.

This would take a big chunk out of my rent and generally mean that I could spend more time on Tridactyl and less time finding work : )
