yep. I'm still around. I live a quiet existence in not so sunny Hobart, Tasmania. Most unusual request - still thinking about it. Donations willingly accepted - just trying to think what kind of cool thing to provide in return for the generous donations.
When I was studying Computing at Tas Uni back in the mid 00s, they still mentioned Trumpet Winsock as their big success story. You should be proud of the impression you've left.
(Though now I think about it, were they annoyed at the commercialisation of a piece of research? Being a Uni, probably. Either way, you've left an impression!)

It seems to me that people are donating because you've earned it. If you really feel a need to give back, perhaps the gift of education would be better. W. Richard Stephen's TCP/IP Illustrated is a great book, but looking long in the tooth these days. I'm sure you've forgotten more about TCP/IP than most of us have learned, but perhaps a book on TCP/IP by a guy that wrote a stack would be a good start?
