**New Zealand App Developers Donate to Quake Relief** -- Kudos to the 
  Mac and iOS developers who are donating a week’s worth of proceeds 
  to aid in the Christchurch earthquake relief efforts. Through 5 
  March 2011, 100 percent of proceeds from all listed apps will go 
  directly to the New Zealand Red Cross. And if you’re a developer, 
  scroll to the bottom of the page to see how to join the effort.
