+Help sponsor Squashfs development!
+
+Maintaining and improving Squashfs is a lot of work, but Squashfs is one of
+the only widely used Linux file systems that has no company backing. Squashfs
+development is funded soley by the author, partially supported by donations
+from companies and individuals that want to improve Squashfs for themselves
+and others.
+
+Mainlining of Squashfs only became possible when CELF (Consumer Electronics
+Linux Forum) offered to contribute to the costs, which allowed the author
+to work full-time on the project.
+
+There's lots of exciting new improvements to Squashfs in the pipeline, and
+if your company is a serious user of Squashfs, please consider accelerating
+development of Squashfs by donating.
+
+Donatations can be made from the Squashfs sourceforge homepage, or if you
+prefer by contacting the author privately.
