Surely an instance that is growing at the rate this one is will incur a rise in operation costs. I’d venture a guess that required administration time also will rise.
So… how can we help?

If you’re specifically interested in perks, there’s also an “ARPA” program you can join which includes additional alternative payment options and features beyond what basic validation provides:
Did you know you can become a permanent LIFETIME member of SDF by making a onetime donation of $36? ARPA members have immediate access to: 600mb total / 20000 files in four areas access to multiple subdomains (mkhomepg -a) voting priviledges on new system features (vote) telnet, ssh, ytalk, irc, irssi (non-proxy) wget, snarf, ftp, scp gcc, perl, php, python, ruby, et cetera Mail and USENET news via UUCP SDF VoIP Basic Telephony Service (type 'software arpa' for a complete list of programs) access to join VHOST, DNS, VPM, DBA, TWEAK & MetaARPA membership levels You too can become a LIFETIME member of the ARPA group by sending a ONE TIME contribution of $36 (or more!) to SDF. NON-US Residents can join ARPA by sending the amount via International Money Order, cash (US/EURO) or by PAYPAL. Be sure to include your user id of 'SDF UNIX USERNAME' LAND INTERNET (donations of $3.00 or more) ----------------------------------------------------------------- | SDF Public Access UNIX | PAYPAL.COM: [email protected] | | PO BOX 17355 | | | SEATTLE WA 98127 USA | (Be sure to include your user id) | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | Donations or dues via crypto: E-mail 'membership' for options | ----------------------------------------------------------------- Acceptable funds: Western Union, Cheques, Money Orders, US, CDN, EURO, UK, YENSo say with Paypal, it’s as easy as just entering a donation amount of $36? And of course, including your SDF user ID.
I believe so, though you should definitely forward any particular questions to [email protected] for an official answer – I’m just a regular user!
FWIW: It probably wouldn’t hurt to be specific and say in your donation message that you’re seeking to join the ARPA program. Obviously, you’ll need to actually have an ID on the SDF unix system, but it apprears that you’ve already taken care of that particular point (assuming this person is you):
