Hi guys !
As promised some news about donations.
At the moment, more than 1800€ has been raised on paypal account
which create
some trouble. As we have just set up our paypal account for Mageia
and as we
received many donations for Mageia, we have some limitations by
paypal. I've
send many documents to remove those limitations yesterday and today.
So i hope
limitations will be removed soon.
Why do i speak about limitations, that's because at the very moment
we cannot
overpass 2000€ for the incoming money, so you see the point. I keep
on eye on
our paypal account to notice any change.
Slightly more than 700€ of donation by bank transfert. This is the
solution i
recommend even if you may need to go to your bank, there is no
limitation
And 50€ by check if my treasurer's information is right :)
So that's more than 2500€ for now, keep on, share the adress :
http://donate.mageia.org
Stay tuned for next news !!
Thanks
Wow! Good news considering the little time this has been running.
Is there anything that we could do to help raise the $$$ amount
restrictions. Some of our community members may have some financial
clout. Why/what are the limitations.

Hi Folks !
I'm Elodie (aka DjeZAeL), the assistant treasurer of AUFML, and i set up
the donation campaign.
Here is the message of PayPal about the limitations.
/*23 sep 2010: *PayPal exige des comptes relevant de la catégorie
organisation caritative/à but non lucratif des informations
supplémentaires sur leur organisation. Lors d'une étude récente,
votre compte a été identifié comme relevant de cette classification.
Sans réponse de votre part, nous pourrons restreindre l'accès à
votre compte./
/PayPal est légalement tenu de respecter les réglementations de
l'Union européenne concernant le blanchiment d'argent, en collectant
des informations auprès de ses utilisateurs lorsque ces derniers
reçoivent des paiements d'un montant total supérieur à la limite
définie./
/Si vous avez des difficultés à suivre la procédure, n'hésitez pas à

/Nous vous remercions de votre confiance et vous prions de nous
excuser pour tout désagrément éventuel./
Here under, the limitations currently enforced on the Paypal account :
Type de limite Montant de la limite Il reste Date de
redéfinition
Limite de paiement annuelle €1 500,00 EUR €1 500,00 EUR 21 sep
2011
Limite de virement mensuelle €750,00 EUR €100,00 EUR
Limite de virement annuelle €1 000,00 EUR €350,00 EUR 21 sep
2011
Limite de réception annuelle €2 500,00 EUR €163,90 EUR 21 sep
2011
We have already made a transfer of 650,00 EUR to the bank account of
AUFML in order to have money immediately usable for Mageia.
All the documents required by PayPal were already provided, they are
being processed.
I'm scanning the PayPal account thoroughly to raise the limits as soon
as possible.
Elodie (doing her best)
PS: sorry if the paste are in French, the PayPal account is in French
since AUFML and I are French ;) (and my english is not very good)
