What do you mean by "fixes the donation amount"? > Why not make the entry fee obligatory for everyone to cover our costs? > Do you think it can discourage participants? I don't think so, especially if the registration fees are donations that we will redistribute as is to FLOSS projects. > During the event the participants will be able to either donate any > amount to specific software and record it on hackadon website or > donate to the campaign in general and trust the other participants > with choice of projects. We want to keep these two options plus add another one: let a user give to X, Y and Z by redirecting "tokens" into boxes X, Y and Z. Louis-David already did this, it adds a lot of fun and a sense of participation on the decision process, which is good IMO. > This way we separate event hosting and fundraising. This still feels two complicated. Both sponsors and users should only pay once, and they should pay for "supporting FLOSS and participate to a nice party where we redirect donations and talk about FLOSS/money." >> For now I'm leaning toward the first solution because it seems >> clearer and more "agile" to me, but Jarek you spent a lot of time >> on the campaign so I feel bad wasting your time. > > Don't worry about time spent on campaign - we can probably re-use it > as different form of communication.

Let's wait for other feedback until we make a decision tomorrow. I still wait for Mozilla confirmation for Dec 11th, so we have a bit more time. -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] http://lists.librefunding.org/listinfo/discussion
