In that case vroom/perlmonks.org should get exactly as much compensation as SourceForge gets.

    Says who? I thought one of the key elements of Open Source was giving back to the community. Wouldn't that include compensation to the site/community that helped you?

      It seems that the open source community often likes to dictate the terms of compensation rather than accept a gift freely given (GPL vs Artistic comes to mind).

      I'm much more inclined to reward someone who aided me without thought of compensation than someone who had his hand out from the start.
