Can I solicit donations for my project in CodeProject?
-
I wrote this article several years ago to publish my library, and the library has became widely used. Currently, I need some funds to continue developing it. So I decided to solicit donations for the project. I got started a Pledgie campaign to collect donations. So CodeProject allows me to announce it in my article?

If we condone it on one article we must condone it on all articles. Imagine every single article that you read asking you for donations. It goes against the spirit of why I started CodeProject: to give away freely with no expectation other than people might find it useful, and in return they may contribute something I would find useful. So: I would prefer not, but I do appreciate you asking.

Thanks! I see your point and sorry for my lack of consideration.

In my opinion, you DO have consideration. You asked first.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
