Actually please don't donate money for that - giving me money will not increase the number of hours in the day or reduce the number of hours I need to sleep (Wikipedia/Wikimedia is nearly a second full time job for me). Also, doing so would only add a small incentive for me to do more work in this area since I strongly suspect that such pay would pale in comparison to what I now receive as a GIS specialist (thus I would have to keep my day job). A full time server admin is far more important. More voluneers welcome in the finance department. :) -- mav __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!
