I have used many open source tools and libraries throughout my professional career thinking that "hey, it's open source! I can always continue with it by myself if anything happens". Although it is true, and I have exercised this approach myself with Windows port of Redis (whose development was suddenly stopped) - I must admit it is not trivial :)

It is quite hard to dive into something new from one day to another, get acquainted with it and then be able to deliver production-ready changes - and that's just one tool/library while you still need to get your main job done... But don't you worry - I've come to save you the burden of all of this ;) and I am willing to spend some time on maintaining that project.

Since I am mostly doing this in my spare time over the weekends - I would like you to consider sending me a small/medium/big "thank you" by sponsoring my work. This kind of "feedback", in my opinion, creates a stronger commitment - as you give more than just clicking a "star" (which is also welcome!) and then I do my best to earn that money (I don't want to get it for free and I bet you didn't get it for free either).

$5 a month

A coffee a week! So I can hunt for bugs longer.

$10 a month

I love reverse-engineering, so this tier is a "reverse postcardware" - you will receive a postcard once in a while from me as a reward for your contribution. I will most likely spend the rest on coffee.

$15 a month

Select

A beer a weekend! While coffee is great, I tend to be more creative after having a beer (or two), so your issue reports might get solved quicker, new releases published sooner, etc. In addition to "reverse postcardware" reward - I will attach a beer pad for you, cheers! Please don't choose this tier too often though - I still need to be able to provide high quality changes ;)

$30 a month

Select

A better "a beer a weekend" sponsorship, so I choose only higher quality craft beers, which should result in even higher quality fixes and stronger commitment for ongoing development on Redis for Windows. And you get two beer pads, as beer tastes better when you have some company, cheers!

$50 a month

Unlike the previous tiers that solely fuel mostly me ;) - this one would be mostly spent on making Redis for Windows more recognizable and more professional (adding a dedicated web page, buying a code signing certificate to sign binaries, etc.)

$100 a month

The beauty of life lies in its variety. Thus I am adding yet another alternative to the vast set of possible sponsorship tiers (personally I'm lost with more than 2-3 options to choose from, but hey - it is your call to choose this one :).

Some serious business starts here. If you rely on any of my work in your professional projects - your issue reports and feature requests will get a higher priority and I will do my best to handle them during normal business week (I need to leave weekends for "A beer a weekend" sponsors!). If you want me to promote/feature/mention your software product - we can surely arrange something.

$500 a month

Select

You definitely rely on my work and want me to focus on being up-to-date with latest state-of-the-art frameworks, tooling and methodologies, so that I can maintain Redis for Windows and keep it in sync with the original. If you choose this tier I will stop offering "A beer a weekend" tier (to have some more time on weekends ;) and will use your contribution to spend more time on fixing issues, providing improvements, porting new features, as well as trying to attend some conferences related to Redis (Redis Days, RedisConf, etc.) to get first-hand news about its roadmap and future plans. If you want me to promote/feature/mention your software product - we can surely arrange something.

You don't want to choose this tier as then you might be treated as an accomplice in human cloning - as I'd probably have to clone myself to take up the tasks you would like to see done for such a huge contribution. I never say never, though ;)
