Whoops -- I seem to have accidentally archived the submit form along
with some other CGI stuff from a finished project!  Thanks for the
report.

It is!  They can!  We were granted 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status in
August, 2004.  (See ruby-talk:108189.)

Our PayPal account is:  acct@rubycentral.org.  We're happy to take
contributions directly there, or if you know anyone who wants more
information first, or who is interested in the possibility of
sponsoring a specific project, they can contact one or more of the
directors directly.  (That's me, Chad Fowler (chad@chadfowler.com),
and Rich Kilmer (rich@infoether.com).)
