It's somewhat startling to realize OpenWRT wasn't nominated long ago ...
From http://openwrt.org/:
- OpenWrt is described as a Linux distribution for embedded devices.
Contributions - cash or equipment, but apparently to SPI, with instructions to forward to OpenWRT, instead of OpenWRT directly:
- https://dev.openwrt.org/wiki/SupportDonate - includes credit card payment means. No obvious PayPal mechanism sticks out.
I've uploaded Ross Chevalier's, CTO of Novell Canada, talk at Ontario Linux Fest on Xen virtualization to archive.org:
