While Kickstarter is an excellent platform for financing start-ups and alike, elementary will need a concrete goal to use it: eg. enough money for a developer to work full time for elementary during some time.
It's probably no impossibility (although I'm very much not speaking as an authority in the matter.) But still, I think it should probably be discussed in a different thread. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Elementary Website Team, which is subscribed to elementaryweb. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/840896 Title: Integrate Flattr with the elementary website Status in Official elementary website development: New Bug description: I propose that the elementary project should offer up a Flattr "thing". For those of you who have missed out on what Flattr is -- it's this great service that allows you to specify a sum that you'd like to donate each month, and then every time you Flattr something, the amount is divided so that it's split equally by the end of the month. It's used by content creators to make a small extra profit. Check out http://flattr.com for more info. Integrating Flattr on a website is dead simple, and open source software is a typical service to use Flattr. This could basically be an extension of donations to the elementary project, giving people the option to simplify donations.
