They are not doing too bad. They just started the fundraising about a month ago and they have already hit almost 30k. I remember it was under 10k just two weeks ago. Although I have no doubt that they will hit 200k due to many large companies interest in the wellfare of FreeBSD (HP, IBM, Yahoo, NetApp, Pair, etc.), I would strongly suggest that regular Joe person donate too. I think there is some kind of tax law about single large donations and being a non-profit organization. They got in trouble with this a few years ago and had to raise 30k to keep their tax-exempt status. Anyways, if you like FreeBSD or opensource in general, go out there and donate 10 dollars or more.
