If not from someone listening to this list, then from where?  It seems
ridiculous that it is not already funded given the threats to
encryption around the world.  Obama. Cameron. Putin.  Belafuckingrus.

Suggestions are welcome.  I would really rather see
https://gnupg.org/index.html funded than send a robot into the ocean
as we bomb ourselves into the abyss with unfunded programmers' last
words to the human race being, "I told you so" and the last noises
humanity makes being a few plaintive cries and the clinking of wine
glasses.  We really need to do better as a species.
