About donations
Hyperbola is a community driven project funded by donations. All the software in Hyperbola is both free and gratis, so the project relies on the community to sustain itself. You can easily help by making a donation.
We will spend as much funds as possible exclusively in the HyperbolaBSD system development, which is the most hardest part of Hyperbola Project and requires much time of effort and dedication. It is our goal to receive enough funds to sustain the main development team, so in the future they will be able to work full time on the HyperbolaBSD project.
What Hyperbola needs
Hyperbola as project is done by volunteers in their free time. Besides working on HyperbolaBSD we also need to cover operating expenses for:
- web-infrastructure hosted
- build-server
- repositories hosted
- file-servers
We do not get any further support by other organizations like FSF / FSFE / FSFLA, so we do all that alone. Also we always need hardware, especially 32bit-exclusive oriented hardware so we can test our development for HyperbolaBSD.
Last but not least we would like to finally granting Hyperbola as project the possibility to be fully sustainable based on the funding from the community itself, so we can also pay people to develop full-time on Hyperbola.
