Re: Mobile Donations
Hi Bharat, I like the idea of mobile funding. I do think we need to know where we are going to advertise it though to reach past our current audience.

Mobile funding may not work out so well in the short term because of the following reasons: - Our focus on existing users for Gnome 3 - most of them are close to computers - Does not work outside USA - We need to tap into various non-profit advertising modes like TV, radio, etc before we can leverage the Mobile part. If you have a different opinion please advise and I shall revisit. Lets revisit it again after the next Mktg hackfest.
