If hornbeck had said what the money will be spend for, I would have gave more money. I've already donated but was recorded as "Anonymous". See the donor on Sunday, March 18 ?

Hey zimbatm,
We are going to add a feature soon, which will allow you to claim your anonymous donations. Your observation about how the funding will be used is well made too. Many of the campaigns on Pledgie could be more clear about what the funding will used towards.

zimbatm,

You donated before you created an account, so none of your info will show (instead just "Anonymous" is displayed). I've since linked your donation with your account, so now it shows up.

Main ruby is the suck. Even though it has a long way to go, I'm pinning a lot of personal hope on rubinius. Keep up the good work!
