Work on GnuPG is mostly financed from donations. To continue maintaining GnuPG so to keep it strong and secure against the ever increasing mass surveillance we need your support. Until the end of November we received a total of 6584\u2009\u20ac (~5500 net) donations for this year. Along with the 18000\u2009\u20ac net from the\u00a0Goteo campaign\u00a0this paid for less than 50% of the costs for one developer.<\/p>\n

For a critical project of this size two experienced developers are required for proper operation. This requires gross revenues of 120000 Euro per year. Unfortunately there is currently only one underpaid full time developer who is barely able to keep up with the work; see this\u00a0blog entry\u00a0for some backgound. Please help to secure the future of GnuPG and consider to\u00a0donate\u00a0to this project\u00a0now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
