[ryzom.org] Free Software Foundation support and pledge

[Quim Rovira]

On Tuesday night, the Free Software Foundation had an urgent meeting
in which they decided to help the project with a pledge of $60.000
(around 45.000 euro). Taking this pledge into account, we've now
reached a total of 135.000+ euro in accumulated pledges, which means
we expect to be able to make an offer of over 200.000 euro on the
reviewed plan that's got to be presented today.

We're very happy to receive the FSF support, since this is very
important for any free software initiative, and we hope this will make
us an even more solid option to be considered by the judges this days.
The decision, as previously stated, is expected to be made public some
day before the 19th of December.
