But it would have collected 45,000 dollar. That's not bad. Maybe retry with a smaller sum than 111,000?
(Edit: The amounts I wrote above are slightly wrong because they appeared in Euro for me instead of Dollar. But the principle remains the same.)

Re: Stage alpha or beta
ReactOS is in early development phase! And ReactOS is not Linux.
Re: Stage alpha or beta
Yeah, but HOW will that money be used? "Upkeep of the website" does not accelerate development. To fund a couple dozen developers for a five years? Abjectly insufficient. To "create prizes"? Like, you reach X or Y and get 200/500/1000 EUR? Possible, and will give around a 100 "targets" (which really still remain "targets of honor" as the prize is in no correspondence to the time), but these better be so defined as to provide evident, demonstrable progress. Or half as many, for double the money.
Observing from the outside, ReactOS has gained a sort of reputation of a project of developers who have deep, specialized expertise, of weirdo "defenders" of most dubious and delusional character, of rejecting any advice or change along a very niche path, of having actually missed the "path to explosion" (when WinXP died), of being hence inaccessible and only being able to aspire to become some sort of "FreeDOS for NT". — Now, the latter is no tragedy, and personally, I see it between that — and an "academic endeavour" similar to some other OS experiments (being not Unix-based). But somehow, this should be addressed, i.e. "what your REALISTIC intentions are", and THEN I am sure a run for money will be successful. "Funding the status quo", however, might just put off many.

Re: Stage alpha or beta
I got lots of links for the TV series "The Flash" ending. And I learned that it was Adobe.
This page from Adobe lets you assume that it was security reasons, not Apple.

Try harder and do some reading. From lots of sources you can obtain lots of information, from that you can draw your own conclusion.

Hi folks!
I work performing tests on hardware and software. And I have a good amount of daily time left!
Can I help you? I would like to help by testing and programming Reactos.
I would work hard on Reactos. But I would like to get paid (small amount) for every project I do.
What do you think?

To be happy: a cup of coffee and lots of cats!
