CyanogenMod - You don't ask, you don't get

Enormously popular custom ROM builders CyanogenMod recently requested help from the Android community to help fund the purchase of new servers.
Having lost access to a large computer cluster, the team were no longer able to get through the 50+ nightly builds they were used to.
While you might expect our beloved Android community to rally round rather quickly, the level of funding necessary was reached in less than a day - the plea and the thank you message on CyanogenMod.com both being published on 18th Feb!
Stories like this are a perfect illustration of how tight-knit the Android universe is, and how valuable both top-notch developers and faithful, supportive users are to its future. Keep on keeping on, Android fans.

“I am absolutely amazed at the support we have just been shown. We’ve reached our goal, and maybe a bit more. We will be ordering the servers next week (Xeon-class boxes with lots of RAM), and should have the builds going again soon!
Thank you again for the support!”
