This is extremely generous and couldn't go to a more deserving group of hard working programmers.

Makes me wish I had my own company to match his generosity!

Well, you know, I've decided that I don't particularly like ramen, so I figured that I'd go without this month. :-)

In all seriousness, I was planning on making a donation anyway, but I figured that I could afford to make a bigger donation this way. If I'm lucky, this will bring in new users, and the lack of profits this month will be balanced out by increased profits in the following months... but even if nobody new uses Tarsnap because of this, I'll be glad that I've supported the FreeBSD Foundation.

What a great way to do something good and generate business for your company at the same time.
