This is an information which had been sent to me by email by Zwiebelfreunde themselves. I can confirm this information for two other european countries. The idea for mentioning this specifically was to spare Zwiebelfreunde a lot of paperwork (something which you can probably relate to ;))) ) That is why i think we should not simply be deleted. So please mention it, rephrasing something like this: "depending on the country you live in and the donated amount, a specific receipt can be requested but might not be necessary." >>> - Line 61: what is the technical limitation behind "If possible"?

I'll just add my comments here, instead of providing a patch: * "Please, use euro as currency as this makes accounting easier. => This should be "Euro" not "euro". * "Do a one-time donation" => It should be "Make a one-time donation". Please feel free to check this with a native speaker. * Did you test this: http://git.tails.boum.org/tails/commit/?h=web/donation&id=31e78a9df4f4ec34101d47313f6759f4f2b2672a ? I copied the decimals from the Torservers donation form as is. Everything else looks good to me. Cheers, u.
