A well known german podcaster makes more than 1000 Euro per month with flattr. http://tim.geekheim.de/2010/08/02/flattr-der-dritte-monat/ I think, that OSM is also well known enough to earn some money. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] Flattr donation button
Hi I just signed up for this new Flattr micropayments thing for donating small amounts to projects you love (flattr.com), and noticed there had been no discussion about it here. It would be a nice experiment to add a Flattr button to the main site and see how much is made in microdonations. OSM would need an account with a minimum of 2eu a month (which is shared between other subscribers when you click their Flattr buttons). It must be worth a few euros to try it out!
