Hi Bernd et al,
I don't want to advertise the micro-donations too much. And please don't
send 10 cents or so ;-)
Seriously - the microdonations are fine and well-meant, but with
micro-donations you can't finance 30k. At least this is fact from other
>crowd funding campaigns in the past.
BTW: at
https://qgisblog.files.wordpress.com/2017/02/qgis-org-donationsandsponsorshipanalysis2016-2.pdf
you can see the ratio of >donations and sponsorships. Donations make a
little more than a quarter of the QGIS.ORG income - three quarters is
from >sponsorships. However, we are very grateful for any contribution,
no matter the size.
Andreas
Of course you are right. I will try and see if sth can be managed over the
german user group to lift the work from you guys.
Cheers
Bernd

Hi Jonathan,
One way to contribute smaller amounts is to donate to QGIS.ORG (see
http://www.qgis.org/en/site/getinvolved/donations.html) - >>>either
through wire transfer or PayPal and mention "QGIS composer rewrite" in
the payment instructions. For Paypal, just forward >>>your payment
confirmation to fina...@qgis.org and mention that you want to
contribute this amount to the "QGIS composer >>>rewrite" crowd funding
campaign.
I'd be happy to aggregate such donations (marked as contributions and
forward them to Nyall. The minimum amount is just to >>>reduce
bureaucracy and the loss of payment fees (payments to Australia often
come with a hefty payment fee - maybe not from the >>>uk, but from
many other countries). QGIS.ORG would be happy to step in in this case
and relieve Nyall from such bureaucracy.
Thanks and greetings,
Andreas Neumann
QGIS.ORG treasurer
Ahh,
this could have been mentioned much earlier!
Await my micro-donation ;)
Cheers
Bernd

I looked at the Crowdfund page & the minimum donation is 200 euros.
Is there way local usergroups or some other method that could
aggregate donations from smaller users that are below this threshold?
Cheers,
Jonathan
