Hi Padman, For my understanding ,the way to chip in is to sign up Petron. But there are not enough people to sign up Petreon to donate $1 per month at this time.
padman -- please PM me -- I want to contribute as well. Can you please tell me how, how much, and what I have to do. Thanks

The problem is that I only visit this forum from time to time and not religiously following everything posted. Perhaps if there is more publicity and a new call for users to sign up, it might work better than the last call.
I am still confused as to where to sign up for Patreon as I do see a couple of posts where authors stated they have signed up but where and how is not indicated so don't know where to look. Thanks.
Well, this topic is in the list of announcements...
Anyway, no point to discuss about patreon anymore.
