[Osmf-talk] Bitcoin major donation to OSMF

[martin at noblecourt.eu]

Dear members,

As some of you have probably seen to, OSM Foundation apparently received 
200,000 USD in donation by the mysterious but groundbreaking Pineapple 
fund (a generous bitcoin owner), plus 30k USD from another anonymous 
donor:

I first wanted to congratulate the board or anyone else involved and 
making it happen, and also since this donation represent something like 
twice the usual yearly turnaround of the Foundation, I'm very curious to 
see what will be done with this donation - it's a great opportunity for 
the project!

I'm also using this opportunity to wish everyone a very Happy New Year, 
it seems to start well for OSM :-)

Best

Martin
