I believe the BackTrack guys get some of it and put the rest back 
into Offensive Security. See http://www.remote-

In fact, let's give alot more back then we have been doing, 
collectively
(ugh) speaking.

Think of it as enlightened self-interest; helping these folks 
out makes
it far more likely you'll see even more good stuff from them in 
the future.

That's an awfully self-less gesture :)

Any ideas which projects 'deserve' the money? There are a lot of 
sec 
projects, and not a lot of money ;)

Personally, i'll give to Backtrack (but that's not really giving 
back to 
the developers), Nikto guys and Phenoelit. I don't remember paypal 

donate type things, or any of these guys being regular hacker 
profiteering types though...
