247 Euro from Dec 7 to 18.  514 Euro the last two days; obviously as a
side effect of the Goteo campaign.  That are the raw Paypal numbers.

Right, there is no transaltion.  This has been reported by several
contributors.  We need to work with Goteo to fix that for the future.

Re: Holiday giving

I just donated € 75 to the crowdfunding campaign (and will soon be wearing a
nice t-shirt). Will you also match that or are you restricting  
yourself to the "normal" Christmassy donations?


On January 6 (the Feast of the Epiphany, the traditional end of the  
Christmas season) I'll ask Werner how many euros were raised between  
the time I posted my original message and 11:59pm January 5.  Normal  
donations and crowdfunding will both be matched.  Once I get a sum  
from Werner I will be remitting two separate donations to g10 Code:  
one will be the matching funds, and the other will be my Christmas  
contribution.


Werner is free to tell the list how many funds were raised, how many I  
matched, and whether I lived up to my word.  However, I'm going to  
request he keep my (private) Christmas contribution quiet: that's  
between me and my conscience, not between me and the list.  :)

I just donated € 75 to the crowdfunding campaign (and will soon be wearing a
nice t-shirt). Will you also match that or are you restricting yourself to the
"normal" Christmassy donations? It's your money, it's your call. Obviously.

Here's to a great funding campaign!

Peter.

PS: By the way, why does goteo.org insist on speaking what looks like Spanish to
me? I intended to read the privacy policy, but it insisted on showing me
versions I couldn't comprehend. I could get a French one from the language
pulldown, but not English. My Accept-Language: is en-gb,en;q=0.7,nl;q=0.3 so
that can't be the problem. Perhaps some strange interaction with Privoxy,
although I feel strongly that it simply should respect my Accept-Language 
anyway.

Sam is preparing the campaign and twittering on
https://twitter.com/gnupg .  This campaign will be about a better
website and easier accessible information on GnuPG.  Sam already has
some sketches for the new website for example
https://twitter.com/gnupg/status/408611650887905280

GnuPG has for too long been a tool like a sendmail/exim/postfix but
deserves more user attention.  This is what we want to change.

In the course of the preparation, Sam convinced be that we need Twitter
and even web site statistics.  I have done the latter only the first two
years of running GnuPG but stopped that for privacy reasons.  Now we
installed Piwik and people with JS enabled are tracked by us. Of course
this is pseudo-anonymized and we won't hand out the raw data to anyone
outside of g10 code.  Piwik gives some interesting insights, for example
most direct visits to gpg4win.org come from gnupg.org.  Aside from the
usual Google triggered visits, lifehacker.com and philzimmermann.com are
top listed referrers for gnupg.org.  gnupg.org has 2000 to 3000 visits a
day, gpg4win.org 1500 to 2500.


Salam-Shalom,

   Werner

Wow, that's very generous of you, Robert. Thank you very much.

Related: A month or so ago, a post on the GnuPG blog mentioned a
crowd-funding campaign that was to be launched "in early December".
Details were scarce, however. This sounds like perfect timing; perhaps
either Sam or Werner can provide us with an update on the campaign?

Thanks,
