DynDNS.org Announces $20, 000 Donation to Perl Foundation

"Thanks primarily to Perl and other Open Source technologies, we are able to provide DNS services to over 180,000 members of the Internet community. This is our way of giving back to some of the people whose tireless devotion to writing quality software has enabled us to provide our services to the Internet community over the past three years. ... Not only is Perl the core technology behind our services, but the Perl community has welcomed us both as an organization and as individuals. It seems natural for us to share our success with them." see also : How to Donate to Perl in Corporate Fashion in 24 Hours
