I'll ask Tramm if he can set up a PayPal donation page that references DV Info Net. Thanks for the suggestion,
Thanks to everyone who has offered donations. The software will be free when it is released next week and if you want to donate to help with the development, I've setup a dvinfo PayPal donation link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=6273230

I'm also looking for used film-making equipment. Send me an email if you have an older Steadicam, rails systems, matte box or lenses that you aren't using anymore.

The full source will also be released under the GPL so another way that some folks will be able to help is by writing new software to run on everyone's cameras. While it isn't directly based on CHDK, I've benefited from their GPLed sources and the hard work that they did in reverse engineering Canon's P&S cameras. Without their initial effort, I would not have been able to make such rapid progress on the 5D Mark II.

Donation sent. I'm 2 weeks away from a wedding and honeymoon so am incredibly poor right now, but hopefully every bit counts! Appreciate all the work!

Haven't even tried this out yet... but I know it's something I want to support. Keep at it! Going to go experiment with the firmware now.
