Big thank you folks. The fundraising for the digital restoration of El Capitan on Kickstarter has almost reached its goal.

Hopefully the pledges will keep coming and the restoration will continue towards completion and El Cap will once again be available.

Thank you again,
Fred

Is there some way I can pledge, either directly or through someone else, and get a copy of the DVD - without signing up for yet another website, etc etc etc?

Also, I noticed in the fine print that they want $US25 for out of country shipping, which seems a lot more than should be needed to mail a DVD in a mailer to Canada.

Do you have a paypal account?

But you should act quick.. Update:

No, I don't have a PayPal account - on the occasions when I buy something online, I usually pay directly. I'll pledge $50 if someone can look after the details - getting the amount recorded on the website, and receiving and shipping the DVD.

Mighty Hiker -

I am going to add your $50 to the kickstart, I will send you a PM from suptopo with my email address included with the receipt, then you may send me your address to send the DVD to.

Clear?

Post review edit:
I just checked the site t find that is knows that I pledged the $100 from before… There is no indication that I can make a second pledge for the $50.. Checking now

Too late, or I just got conned into getting a second DVD and t-shirt for a second pledge @ $50…

Update:
$156 to go, I hear that Fred had to start the restoration machine to get it warm just in case we got over the line today!!!


Post Read Edit
Sort of a hassle. It can be done, but it would be much cleaner if Anders just sorta made it happen.

 Yeah, might be a hassle, but my life is kinda void of meaning and/or purpose pretty much going forward… So it's not that much of a hassle. Plus, it shows me that I'm better than many republigoons… I just don't mind helping others...

Thanks, Jingy - happy to help you find meaning in life, although it involves some nuisance for you. PM sent.

I just balked at a unsimple registration/payment setup, plus the idea that I'd have to pay another $25 for shipping.
