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?
