Hello,
How about setting up a donate button to each of these projects?
I would personally like to give some of my pocket money to both of these
projects and I am sure I am not the only one in this situation.
Also, these two projects look very important for a wider adoption of OCaml.
Regards,
F.
PS: maybe ocamlbrew too?

I think it is a good idea. Though, OASIS itself is just time consuming for
me. I'd prefer to receive some money for the forge, for which I have to pay
something.
But for reason related to my current job, I cannot receive money directly.
It will be better for me to have some kind of umbrella non-profit
organization to which I can ask to buy things (like a Windows license for
setting up a Windows build slave).
Regards
Sylvain

Do you think it's possible/possible to have such an umbrella?

Roberto di cosmo's IRILL maybe: http://www.irill.org/
Also, for OASIS, as the project is under LGPL,
maybe you can get it accepted as an official FSF project,
then the project can receive targeted donations I think.
For ocamlforge, maybe you should list on a specific page if you accept
donations like hardware, licenses for proprietary software or else
(and maybe how to send money some day).
Also, if donating is more complex than clicking a button,
the donation rate will be low I guess.
Regards,
F.

I like the idea because these projects really need special attention
from the community.
I'd also be fancy to press the donate button.
