Recently I supported another piece of software I'm using (a great backup <br>
software called Duplicati) through Open Collective [1] and started <br>
wondering if this platform might work for Ardour as well?<br>
<br>
I do remember reading (I think on Ardour's forum, years ago) about some <br>
issues with different ways of supporting, but that being a long time <br>
since maybe things are different now.<br>
<br>
Thanks anyway for a great piece  of software!<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Alf<br>
