Considering that SPI has some reserves now, why don't we try this process out before changing how SPI has traditionally collected donations? If the procedure works, and there are people willing to use it and drive it, great. That would be an appropriate time to change the donation procedure or at least suggest that people donate directly to SPI because it is funding appropriate projects with community oversight. If it doesn't, then we haven't built up a pool of money which has no clear purpose. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com Some pirates achieved immortality by great deeds of cruelty or daring-do. Some achieved immortality by amassing great wealth. But the captain had long ago decided that he would, on the whole, prefer to achieve immortality by not dying. -- Terry Pratchet _The Color of Magic_ _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
