Same here.

Me, too. Perhaps we should set up something using http://www.firstgiving.com/ to put our money where our mouth is?

I think in the past Kovid has used chipin.com. Perhaps he will set one up for a Mac Mini and let us all know.

If current efforts dont work out, I'll do that.

StDo · 09-18-2009, 04:29 PM

I'd be pleased to chip in for your Mac Mini.

Xenophon · 09-18-2009, 04:47 PM

If current efforts don't work out, I'll happily chip in as well.

I don't understand... wouldn't the Paypal Donate link on http://calibre.kovidgoyal.net/download work for this?

Kovid, does the "Donate" button get donations to you, or does it go somewhere else?

I'll pop $50 for the cause... just say where...

kovidgoyal · 09-19-2009, 10:39 PM

The donations do come to me, but with a chipin you can seta target say $x00 for a Mac Mini and people can donate towards that target, rather than just in general and see how much money is left for the target

Well, if our other volunteer is not making any headway should you start the chipin account? Sooner we get it working in SL the better!

There was another thread that seemed to point the finger straight at SL for the issues...

Wait another week or so, Qt the graphics library that has the incompatibility just released a technical preview of their next version. Hopefully mwheinz will be able to get that to work.

wygit · 09-21-2009, 06:22 PM

OK, but just let us know... I bet we could get you a mini in a day of donations...

Don't mind waiting, just wanted to make sure you have what you need...
I'm a huge believer in the credo "Just keep the fricking developers happy!"

Probably because I'm a developer... working on a 5 year old notebook at work, because the hardware budget has been scrapped. It's actually easier for me to work at home, because we're not allowed to bring home equipment in to work 'for security reasons'.

Is there any setting on this forum to email replies to a thread?

I'm serious about the donation... set the chipin thing up of you need it.

thanks for a tremendous job on this...

OH, and by the way... I haven't had a crash in two days using the latest version under rosetta.

But I STILL want you to have what you need.

Hmm. Upgraded my tower to Snow Leopard and calibre 0.6.7 wouldn't run, so upgraded to 0.6.13 and it still wouldn't run. Went to my laptop with Snow Leopard and was surprised that calibre 0.5.6 ran just fine.

wygit · 09-22-2009, 09:01 PM

It's actually running ok for me since I upgraded to 6.13 AND did the Rosetta thing...

But still willing to chip in if needed!

Stingo · 09-24-2009, 04:13 PM

Kovid,

It sounds like the independent research effort died. Time for the chipin account?
