Hi,

I've been thinking for a while about the possibility of having
recurring payments implemented in BOINC, pretty much the same way
single donations are implemented right now, via paypal. The idea is to
have donors setup something like a monthly donation that takes place
automatically. Each user should be able to manage/drop the
subscription at any time directly from paypal. I've chatted about this
with Rytis, and he points out that:

- you'll need to modify donate.php and donations.php;

- we need to pass cmd=_xclick-subscriptions instead of cmd=_xclick
when a recurring donation is being created;

- then a3 sets the payment amount per cycle, p3 - the amount of
cycles, t3 - cycle units (D, W, M, Y);

A reference page is:

https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_html_Appx_websitestandard_htmlvariables

I am by no means a php expert, so I was wondering if there is critical
mass here on the list to get this done BOINC-wide at everyone's
benefit. Rytis is willing check the final result and submit it to SVN
when the code is ready and stable. If you feel you can contribute,
please step forward.

Best Regards,
Pasquale
