Diego You bring up a very good point - from my perspective if distros want to use this tool for campaign contributions that is fine too and maybe be better as well as a single channel for fund raising for (all parties involved). This opens a challenge for us to develop a decent set of guidelines on how Gnome and Distros work on soliciting donations - so that we (Gnome & Distros) dont look like spammers :)
Any one from Distro side on this thread - can you comment?
