i hope you invest (at least this much) time into the marketing side, i.e. making sure that the 3000 (or perhaps 4000) will be reached.

@kezegh, many thanks, that is a very generous offer. I will get in touch by PM on this later. Currently I'm staying with relatives in a low-internet area so will wait till I get to learn more about Fragmenter.
BTW, we have been trying to contact Microsoft and Raspberry Pi about the Kickstarter but so far they have declined to answer our emails :-(

3000 pounds / amount of people who want to use it = amount we have to pay
This way we pay our share.
Just make a list and give it a week,after that just split the cost and I am ready to pay my share.
Simlpe and to the point

For me too,but as a business decision ,I am willing to do that.
This is their cost,and I am the client ,so If I have to use their service,and I feel it worths it,which I do ,I have to pay for that amount.and If I do not ,that is ok too.This is the only way that they will get their cost.Since I am not so optimistic about the kick starter campaign any more.
I'm suprised that someone at Apple (for the OSX) or Microsoft (for the various windows) or the Raspberry Pi foundation (for the Pi stretch goal) haven't just donated the money to get it done. It's a fraction of the bar bill at one of their events.

And even if kickstarter fails and there are still people wanting the support for specific platforms, we can set up Patreon page and dedicate any amount each feel comfortable to help contributors keep working. Of course if they are up to it
in any case let's do everything for this kickstarter, for the last few days.

Because there is no point of using Gideros if we loose the iOS market (even if it support Windows devices / desktops).
I think if the Kickstart was stating that 64bit support will be added there would be more supporters. I would actually pledge more if I was assured that 64bit support will be included and I know someone that would donate even more if that was the case.
Sorry for my late reply. I've been away on holiday and not really on internet.
I think we can indeed make 64-bit iOS support a goal of the Kickstarter and include it within the £3000 target. I've read a bit about this and there doesn't seem to be any particular barrier other than some time with debugging etc. As @ar2rsawseen has pointed out, Gideros is written in standard C++ and Lua API in ANSI C so there is no technical barrier to compiling the whole toolchain in 64 bit (or any number of bits: C is not bit-specific!). The only slight barrier is byte compiling the Lua code. We need to give the user the option to byte compile in 32 or 64 bit, not byte compile at all or use LuaJIT. This is some work but nothing fundamentally difficult.
I feel sure by the time we've gone into the guts of Gideros to get the WP8/desktop stuff working, adding 64-bit iOS support will be trivial. (and we can take the opportunity to allow 64 bit compilation of desktop and Windows Store apps as well. 64 bit is supported - but not enforced - on those platforms)
And I want this too as I also have an app on iOS and want to be able to update it after February!
So tomorrow morning I will add "iOS 64 bit" as a goal within the £3000 target -- look out for an update!
@zoolax "3000 pounds / amount of people who want to use it = amount we have to pay"
I think this hits the nail on the head. You may have noticed in update #2 I tried to "subtly" encourage people to put more money in. Now I want to be more plain: if you've got even one app in iOS or Android, then you should put in at least £50. I know it's hard to say what will happen but realistically there is a good chance you will make £50 from being able to deploy even one app to the 3 new targets. Think about it! with the PC market alone you are addressing nearly 1 billion new computers. Every single new PC has the Windows Store right on the front page!
So I would call on everyone here: if you are interested in this project, please pledge at least £50. If you all do this, we will hit the target. And I realistically think that is the ONLY way we can do it: we cannot rely on Microsoft or anyone else to fund this. Passers by will (and have) put in a small amount but this is not realistically a project which will capture the imagination of the general public. It is we (the active Gideros users) who must fund the bulk of the money.
