- riobard 10y agoI went back and checked the video for the latest release event in October 2016. Smartisan collected about 2 million RMB (Chinese Yuan) in ticket sales. They also donated another 1 million RMB originally for Smartisan Open Source Foundation (its own charity arm). So that's about 3 million RMB in total donated to OpenSSL and OpenBSD. For its December 2015 event, Smartisan tried to donate ticket sales to OpenResty, but OpenResty could not legally accept the donation due to complicated Chinese laws governing non-profit organizations. So the money is still in Smartisan's bank account and pending regulatory approval. For its 2014 event, Smartisan donated 1 million RMB to OpenSSL.

- riobard 10y agoMy bad. I only knew one of the donations. Anyway, I'm asking a friend at Smartisan and see if their PR could release a detailed list of past donations.
