I've asked Tyler @OSGeo to set up a PayPal account for OpenLayers - as a way for us to accept "micro-donations" to the project and OSGeo. We have a larger sponsorship program for people wishing to make more substantial contributions (http://openlayers.org/sponsorship/). I like the idea of being able to accept smaller financial contributions from those who are able to make them.

The MapGuide project has a similar setup (http://mapguide.osgeo.org/). Their website includes a fairly unobtrusive "donate" button. How would people feel about having a button on our website for accepting donations? I think we'd have flexibility in the look - and wouldn't necessarily have to go with the PayPal one.

I'm +1.
