@Groovy Duke I am glad you were able to get some information and share it.
I love Grails and want it to continue. To that end I plan to help in one or more ways (code, docs, communications/marketing, direction and financial). With the current userbase, and adequate communication, I believe the funding part of this can be addressed. It needs to be easy to donate any amount directly through a form. Most organizations will be glad to contribute some amount on a recurring basis to support the continued development of the framework their app is built upon.
