Whether you donate today or tomorrow is irrelevant to Skylake support.
If you have the extra cash already, then why not just make that donation
right now? With a donation you are not buying a service or a product,
it is a gift you make voluntarily. Or perhaps a gift you make to lower
your taxable income. In any case, you have your own private reasons for
donating which nobody else should care about.
You have already been given a gift by the community which you can install
and run today, no strings attached. It is this same mindset that donations
are usually made with. Bragging about a donation to those who receive it and
even tying it to conditions makes it look not like a real donation, but more
like an effort to buy influence.
