The utilities that I am developing appear to be quite popular: since January 1st, there have been more than 250 downloads for CoTASA and 120 for CoTaCo.
However, the development and hosting do have a cost (signing certificate, software licenses, domain name and hosting).
All in all, my expenses amount to about 200 Euro/year.
Last year's donations only covered about half of the costs and there have been none since August 2021.
I am starting a call for donations which will be maintained until my expenses are covered.
Why make a donation?
There's no such thing as a free lunch. The tools I develop will always be free to use, I'm not counting the time I spend coding, but it would be nice if the costs could be supported by the community.
How much to give?
The amount is of course free: it is a donation, not a contribution. Nor is it an act of charity, nor a gesture of thanks. Everyone gives according to the use and the satisfaction they get from the tools. Let's compare this with a cinema ticket, or an extra Condor glider...
How to give?
Go to https://condorutill.fr and click on the "Donate" button
An acknowledgement e-mail will let you know that your donation has arrived and has been received.
If you do not see anything after a few days, do not hesitate to send me a PM.
Many thanks in advance for your support

Cotasa makes it so much easier to fly Condor . It and the other Till designed utilities are essential addons . Accompanied by long lasting reliable support . What's not to like ? Donation is on its way

CondorUTill: Call for donations 2023
Time has come to re-open this thread.
The expenses are about the same as last year (see above)
As you have been very generous last year, I have used the excess funding to cover them partly, but your generosity is still welcome.
I'll let you know when the target gets reached.
If any further donations come in afterwards, they will be taken into account as a provision for next year.
Many thanks in advance for your support !

Re: CondorUTill: Call for donations
Done - Thanks for the tools. I don't think half the people would retain their wings without cotasa.
