From reading http://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/bylaws http://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/bylaws, it seems that the $500k is the annual membership fee, not a single donation.
Edit: As is also mentioned in the update to the article.
- Flenser 14y agoIndeed, FTA: "Platinum membership is $500,000 per year." "including fellow Platinum members IBM, Oracle, Intel, Fujitsu and Qualcomm Innovation Center" So Linux Foundation is getting at least 3MM USD per year now.
