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...
