Donations for OpenRocket Development

Through OpenCollective, you can now become a sponsor for the development of OpenRocket. The OpenRocket project is now officially accepting donations to fund out-of-pocket hard costs. We don’t need much, but we will be incurring expenses going forward for code signing, which should eliminate the need to disable security when downloading, installing, and running OpenRocket.
