Hi friends,


until now there are 4851 registered users here in this forum.

Until now approx. 30 users have done a pledge at fundable.org for a quicker development of the usermanagement and blog.


NOW WE CAN DEMONSTRATE THAT THIS IS A REAL COMMUNITY!!!

BUT WE NEED MORE (FINANCIAL) HELP!!


So if you haven't done yet, please make also a pledge:

http://www.fundable.org/groupactions/phpwcms-may-2007

Time is short, we only have time until the deadline:

06/06/2007 11:59 PM EST

You do not have to pledge a big sum, pledges already start at 10 USD... ;-)


Thanks for your attention.


Joachim

Wundern tut mich schon, daß der größte Teil der Sammelaktion an den rein Deutschsprachigen Usern des Forums vollkommen vorbei brandet...

Wollt ihr denn keine Euros aus Deutschland???

FEATURE oder BUG???

Ich denke es werden schon "ein paar" user sein, die so von all den positiven Aktionen um Spenden NICHTS mitbekommen.


Wenn es um Geld geht sollte man wirklich über den "internationalen" Schatten Springen, oder :wink:

Come on. What kind of community is the one based on money???

I am still interested in PHPWCMS, but not working professionally with it anymore, mainly because of the lack of a real community. I really appreciate Oliver's job, but can see the point of this new vector of action...

1. If I am not wrong he is not giving a deadline. Some of the features now under the fundraising campaing were promised months (if not years) ago... Once received the money when are these commitments to be ready for the public??

2. And the big concern...: what would happen if the 6000 are not reached... PHPWCMS dead for another couple of years??? o forever... :cry:

Good luck anyway...

As far as I'm concerned, my small pledge already made through my hosting company is purely for the need that has been expressed by Oliver, and I felt my duty to respond. Purely from the point of view that phpwcms through the years has given me immense satisfaction. I use phpwcms on only two of our network sites.

If that's what the developer wants, and all of us have enjoyed using this product, why not? Good luck to Oliver.

Hi,
2. And the big concern...: what would happen if the 6000 are not reached...
So then I will send my money pledge even in this case - as a little pay back and a thank you for what I've got until now :lol:

not completely untrue, but
...und hält mir den Rücken einige Wochen frei = keeps my back free from money stress to to what has to be done right now ;-) ;-)
And
...were promised months (if not years) ago...
seemed to be meant deeply true but life's always stirring up the water and destoing a lot of man's good will... :cry:

We guys and girls should come to an end ;)

Everytime Oliver has new counts they are outdated :D

Seems like this is on the way to 5000 ... just gave it a customer ~$350 speedup push ..


Don't wait or hesitate, we can not complain about any speed being turtles ourself

Perhaps tomorrow is the last chance to be part of the party

This community is one of the best and most productive ones i have ever seen in this media at all. And I started with 300 baud Internet/BTX here in Germany in the ending 80's.

Respect to all donators out there

Come on, Boys and Girls!!

Are we running short of breath???

That would be a pity!!

We only have to pledge for around $800 and then we would succeed... ;-)


******************************************************

Hi zusammen,


was ist plötzlich los?

Geht uns so kurz vor dem Ziel die Puste aus?

Das wäre sehr schade !!

Wir müssten nur noch ungefähr 800 USD zusammenbringen und dann hätten wir unser Ziel erreicht... ;-)

Hallo Gemeinde,

Ich will hier keine Lanze für die brechen, die sich noch nicht von ein wenig schnödem Mammon haben trennen können, aber vielleicht liegt's auch etwas an der Zahlungvariante???
Es ist hier nicht wie in den USA, es nennt nicht jeder eine Kreditkarte sein Eigen?!?

ABER!!!
Leute gebt mal Gas, das muss doch zu schaffen sein!
Zieht mal die Spendierhosen an, trinkt 'n Bier über die Feiertage weniger und dann wird das werden.


Ich wünsch euch allen ein schönes Pfingsten, Heiko...

Hallo Heiko,

valider Hinweis, aber PayPal ist für jeden mittlerweile erreichbar... :wink:
Schade finde ich nur, daß nachher von der gesammelten Summe 7% dem Eintreiber zum Opfer fallen...

Viele Grüße,
FELIX
...alles wird gut!
still alive...
Experimenting with phpwcms and hoping to have time one day to get a site live... :wink:
One Site finished! :P

Hast Du denn schon was beigetragen? Klick mal auf PayPal, log dich ein und dann wirst Du sehen, was ich meine. Es geht zwar über PayPal, richtig, aber nur unter Angabe der Kreditkartendaten!?!
Weil, so PayPal, fundable nur Kreditkatenzahlungen annimmt.


Grüße Heiko...

Das ist nicht ganz richtig. Ich musste erst mal mein (neues) Konto aufladen --> Überweisung an PayPal. Nacdem der Ü-Betrag gutgeschrieben war, ging's dann problemlos.
Also ran an die Bouletten!
OOOPS! Mein erstes Posting auf Deutsch - wird nicht wieder vorkommen :oops:

There are different kinds of money streams handled differently by paypal.
A special one is the cooperation with fundable: There you can (only) pay with credit cards and your agreement with paypal to let them withdraw sposored amounts of money doesn't work until you will have charged your paypal account with at least this intended sponsoring money where it can be pulled off in case the sponsoring action steps into reality.

Not really a howto but a little explanation why this annoying plastic card window pops up every time you hint the
"I-want-to-participate-in-funding-the-work-on-phpwcms-to-get-this-whole-stuff -some-huge-steps-further-as-soon-as-possible" button
