 hadn't thought about that so thanks for bringing it up. Though I wonder if
 we qualify.  We had hoped to fall in the non-profit when Microsoft looked
 like they'd be offering stuff up to us for free, but turned out we did not
 meet the qualifications for Microsoft. So I suspect it would be the same
 story for Google.
  I forget why.  I think it might have been our org type not being a
 501(c)(3) so not tax exempt for donations. i forget which kind of 501(c)
 we are maybe 6.  But whatever it is is not the you're clear "Non-profit
 organization"


 If we are talking about just foss4g.org (which I imagine would just be 3
 addresses, maybe we should just pay, cause google gives us way way more
 than that in real money for google summer of code), feels only fitting we
 should give some of that back to them.
