I think a progress bar would only be useful if there'd be a clear roadmap *for
the next version* when the previous version comes out.
"We need XY$ to be able to finish 0.8 which will include feature A, B and C.
We already have MN% of the necessary money."
When there is no such short-term roadmap, the donation bar might not be useful
- except as "suffices for one year" bar or similar. A buffer which shows if
freenet financing is in the green :)
Best wishes,
Arne
