Re: [cp-global] plan for shutting down the iceland domain in may 2027

Hi all,

this is my first time interacting with this list, so I hop this is the 
right response.

First of all, thanks for running this all these years! Since I got some 
spare
funds I feel like some financial contribution on my part is warranted. I am
not quite sure how transferring something from germany to you will
work, but please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss details.

Greetings,
Aaron from Berlin
