- Transfer
From me: firstly, I did not know that craigslist works on Perl (what I'm passionate about at the moment). Secondly, such a large and important donation for the benefit of everything and everyone motivated me to “give credit” to craigslist by distributing this news. I hope you all will be interested. PS I do not have the proper translator experience. I am a developer. Therefore, please be a little easier with criticism of the translation.
The Perl Foundation is proud to announce that the craigslist Charity Fund has supported the Perl community by donating $ 100,000 to Perl5, which can also be used for general purposes of the Perl Foundation.
According to craigslist CEO and former Perl hacker Jim Buckmaster: “craigslist has gained great popularity, while most of its software has been developed on Perl for more than ten years. The craigslist Charity Foundation is proud to acknowledge the magic and generosity of the entire Perl community, and is therefore prepared to guarantee continued support for Perl5 by contributing to the future development of Perl. ” He added: “At first, it was not clear how and what could best be given in return for Perl. Fortunately, there were several ways to do this. ”
Karen Powley, President of the Perl Foundation, said: “I am overly grateful to the craigslist Charity Foundation for their incredibly generous donation. What a fantastic way for the Perl Foundation to start 2012! ”
“Such a generous donation will allow us to further improve the core of Perl 5 and the work carried out by the Kernel Support Fund, as well as sponsor a number of activities related to Perl 5 through existing grants and initiatives in the community.”
The craigslist charitable foundation donates in areas such as free open source software, civil liberty, peace and veteran issues, sustainable transport development, as well as journalism and new media. For more information, send an email to charitable@craigslist.org.
