RMS personally brought this up to us when we first talked to him about
Snowdrift.coop. So, it's in the list of stuff we want to do in
principle. Taler is listed already at
https://snowdrift.coop/p/snowdrift/w/en/payment-services

In practice, the legal and practical issues are unclear. Probably we can
get away with legally accepting anonymous donations but not anonymous
payouts. Practically, until Taler or something is really working, I'm
not sure what we can really do. But we're aware of the issue. We may not
have all our ideals working from the beginning of course.
