* Hay una cuenta [https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/freecad Bountysource]; dona dinero al proyecto FreeCAD en su conjunto, u ofrece una "recompensa" para solucionar un problema o fallo específico. Esta es una opción interesante porque tu donación puede ser utilizada específicamente en un área concreta. Sin embargo, el uso del dinero de Bountysource es un proceso más complejo para nosotros, y puede haber un retraso entre la donación y el uso efectivo de la misma.

Opciones

  • Hay una oficial Cuenta equipo FreeCAD; dona a través de tarjeta crédito, Paypal o transferencia bancaria SEPA. Todo el dinero que se reciba aquí se repartirá a partes iguales entre los desarrolladores de la lista. Esta es la mejor opción ya que ayuda a los desarrolladores directamente.
  • Hay una cuenta Bountysource; dona dinero al proyecto FreeCAD en su conjunto, u ofrece una "recompensa" para solucionar un problema o fallo específico. Esta es una opción interesante porque tu donación puede ser utilizada específicamente en un área concreta. Sin embargo, el uso del dinero de Bountysource es un proceso más complejo para nosotros, y puede haber un retraso entre la donación y el uso efectivo de la misma.

Jobs

  • There might be other developers interested in doing specific work for the project; if you would like to accelerate the development of an idea or feature, consider employing a developer. It's up to you to build up an idea, discuss it on the forum, and find developers interested in doing it. You can offer a job in the Job offers subforum.
  • Modelling jobs are also welcome. Not every experienced FreeCAD user is a developer. Experienced users can help you migrate your projects to FreeCAD, which contributes with popularizing the software in organizations. See FreeCAD used in production.

La situación

At the moment FreeCAD is a very small project with a limited team of developers. Most of us have day jobs, and work on FreeCAD during our free time. Having more money would not change this situation significantly. However, some of us have a more flexible work schedule where money can make a difference.

There is also the problem that we have no structure (foundation, association, NGO, etc.) to collect money. Setting up such a structure represents a huge effort (lawyer, accountant, reports, administrative tasks). The small team of FreeCAD would spend all its time doing this instead of developing, even if we could collect enough money to support it. This article explains the problem pretty well. We are however evaluating joining an umbrella organization, which may remedy the situation greatly.

This is the time of crowdfunding, where all kinds of projects and ideas can sometimes raise a lot of money and interest. Why not invent something new that could be done for FreeCAD with money, or help with finding better solutions? Feel free to discuss it on the forum, About funding and all that.
