It appears that the blackout has been beneficial to the Distribution.
We have paradoxically experienced a surge upward of subscription
proceeds and CDR sales since the blackout began, with which we have been
able to commission a new server for our internet service users.

Shell accounts are expected to attract many more users to our
internet service accounts, and we will now have a much faster computer
for x86 package production in our upcoming revision cycle.  It
just needs a NIC, but we should be able to get one next week from
subscription proceeds.  In fact, this new server was built entirely from
GNU-Darwin proceeds.

Many thanks to all of those who continue to support us at this crucial
time.  It is nice be able to make a prominent statement about the war, while
providing these services back to the community. The people are voting with their
dollars, and hopefully we will be able to sustain GNU-Darwin in this
manner for a long time to come.
