- We are wondering if we could have a academic fee for the institution that want it: we have to discuss the fee. Any suggestions would be good: I was thinking that 500 Euros would be good for rich countries and 200 for the other ones. Now tell us.
As you can imagine, pulling out some money is not easy for a University. However, what can be done (at least for me), is to allocate money to invite a PhD holder to stay at the Uni of Chile and work on a topic. I should also be able to buy books (why not a special edition of Pharo by Example at 80 euros?)
- We could also have way to pay a license or a way to give money to the consortium.

Now the complex part: - we would like to collect money from companies and again we will need your help to understand what is the correct model. We are thinking: single person company: starting at 300 Euros "small company": starting at 2500 Euros large companies: starting at 5000 Euros.
We would like to keep the model really simple and transparent.
Now our goal is to be able to pay an engineer like igor full time because there is so much to do. But each day we get closer to what we want.
Stef and Marcus.
