<h2>What Bugzilla Spends Money On</h2>

<p>Historically, Bugzilla grew because companies that used it let their
27+
developers contribute improvements upstream.</p>
28+
29+
<p>That is much less common now. Many teams customize private copies for
30+
short-term speed and never contribute those changes back, which leaves the
31+
public project with less ongoing development capacity. (If your company uses
32+
Bugzilla and can spare a few developer hours each week, we would love that
33+
help, too.)</p>

<p>If you give via Stripe and want to cover the fee (completely optional), here's the formula: Take the amount you want us to get, add 30¢, then divide by 0.971. For example, if you want us to get $100, add 30¢ to make 100.30, then divide by 0.971 and round it to two places after the decimal, which gives you $103.30. To verify it, subtract 2.9% to get 100.3043, round to two digits after the decimal to get 100.30, then subtract 30¢ to get $100.</p>

<h2>Why Bugzilla Now Needs Money</h2>
94-
95-
<p>Historically, most of Bugzilla's development was done by coders who worked
96-
at companies who used Bugzilla, where those companies allowed them to spend
97-
time working on the public version of Bugzilla since it got their features
98-
included in future Bugzilla versions without them having to locally customize
99-
it.</p>
100-
101-
<p>Sadly, this is no longer the case. In the name of immediate productivity,
102-
some companies decide that they can get the quickest results by customizing
103-
their local copy only for their own use, and not taking the time to contribute
104-
those changes to the public version. Being able to upgrade it down the line
105-
without losing their customizations is "someone else's problem in the future."
106-
(Incidentally, we'd love your help if you're a company that uses Bugzilla and
107-
can let one of your internal developers spend a couple hours per week on
108-
Bugzilla!)</p>
109-
110-
<p>Because Bugzilla is now in this position, we are trying to raise enough
111-
money to directly pay at least one developer, so that it will actually be
112-
someone's job to work on Bugzilla, at least part time. That is our
113-
pie-in-the-sky goal.</p>
