I think a progress bar would only be useful if there'd be a clear roadmap *for 
the next version* when the previous version comes out. 

"We need XY$ to be able to finish 0.8 which will include feature A, B and C. 
We already have MN% of the necessary money."

When there is no such short-term roadmap, the donation bar might not be useful 
- except as "suffices for one year" bar or similar. A buffer which shows if 
freenet financing is in the green :) 

Best wishes, 
Arne
