Package: www.debian.org Severity: normal Per initial discussion of difficulty for people to donate to Debian ATM:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2012/03/msg00046.html postgresql's way to channel donations was suggested as an example. Here is a relevant extract from an IRC session: 13:28 Hydroxide: yoh, slef, bkuhn: also, postgresql has a more customized donation flow if you want to see that 13:29 Hydroxide: http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate_pg_org/ ... 13:35 Hydroxide: yoh: if debian's web team wants info on how to do that, either have someone loop in treasu...@spi-inc.org aka schultmc, or possibly ask jberkus because he probably did it on the postgres side 13:35 Hydroxide: or knows who did 13:35 jberkus: Hydroxide: Drake set it up 13:35 Hydroxide: ok Please review http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate_pg_org -- IMHO it would be benefitial for our project to ease donation mechanisms. And having such a simple form by default instead of many hoops to jump to finally donate should have an effect. We could even create a simple small banner for "Donate to Debian" with such a dropbox to be used on pages outside of debian.org (e.g. on *.debian.net) -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (300, 'experimental'), (100, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-www-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
