We've decided to add a "contributions" list for all those who've been thankful enough to give back. Now in no way do we expect or ask for donations in any way. We do this for ourselves and for fun. We just thought it would be nice to show who enjoys their Candy as much as we do! Thanks to all who contribute and thanks of course to Cyanogenmod, SlimRoms, AOSP and of course, all of you android enthusiasts out there!

After running crDroid as the first and only really stable Lollipop ROM I will give candy a try now.
Thank you for providing it. Sounds really good to me.
