PS. I don't know if somebody already posted this. The video of Wayne's talk
in FOSDEM is already online:

Hello, I have little to add to what Wayne said. Just a few clarifications:
- Donors to KiCad donate because they trust we will use the money
correctly. For practical reasons, they cannot decide what specifically will
be done with the money, even if we are always happy to read their
suggestions.
I forgot to link to an initiative from FSFE for those interested in best
practices for documenting the licence of Free and Open Source projects:
