[entering this issue for testing new Google account, although this is also a real issue]

From http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2012-08/msg00054.html

Create a page in the website, named "Acknowledgements", that could go between Authors and Publications, to thank projects and institutions that support LilyPond by providing infrastructure:

To be listed: - GNU, GNU Savannah (source code and mailing lists) - Webdev.nl (lilypond.org hosting) - Linuxaudio/VirgniaTech (releases download) - Google Code (issues tracker) - Rietveld (code review) - MSH Paris Nord (automated build test) - others?

"A number of LilyPond users and developers have provided David Kastrup with the means for living since March 2012 while working on LilyPond, amounting to more than €4000 so far."

That probably does not count as infrastructure, so I am not sure about the right place to mention it. But I definitely think that this information belongs in the project thanks, as it also had a profound effect and there have been some rather heavy hitters among the people providing donations.

In reply to Comment 2: a paragraph that includes the sentence you quoted could be added to a frame "Recent sponsoring", with a couple of links to relevant articles in LilyPond reports.

I meant the frame suggested may go in Community -> Sponsoring.
