Hi, Apologies, it appears that you have been caught by mistake in the anti-spam subsystem for the wiki.

Bug#705209: www.debian.org: Ask for a donation while people are downloading Debian
Package: www.debian.org Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Zack suggested filing as a bug in a discussion on debian-sponsors-discuss. Please see lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-sponsors-discuss/Week-of-Mon-20130408/22.html for more info. In summary it seems Eclipse is asking people to donate to the project during downloads, and that has significantly increased donations. The thought is that this seems like a great idea that we should also do. http://ianskerrett.wordpress.com/2013/04/09/how-to-increase-donations-to-an-open-source-project/ -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-486 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-www-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

So, my pointer was mainly some "related work" for a list where we are broadly discussing how to consolidate Debian fund raising in various ways, including donations. I think it is probably premature to implement this right away, especially because I'd like to gather more opinions from the list participants first. OTOH, it might be something as simple as adding a link to the donation page and a sentence about it from the download page. I don't particularly fancy shiny and "aggressive" banners to encourage people to download, but it seems smart to simply *remind* people that we live up on donation at the moment they decide to try out the result of our work. Feel free to keep this bug around for future thoughts, comment, or close it, as you see fit. Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli . . . . . . . z...@upsilon.cc . . . . o . . . o . o Maître de conférences . . . . . http://upsilon.cc/zack . . . o . . . o o Debian Project Leader . . . . . . @zack on identi.ca . . o o o . . . o . « the first rule of tautology club is the first rule of tautology club » signature.asc Description: Digital signature
