I know for a fact the Ubuntu takes donations because I have donated. At the
time I did I don't even think there was a LoCo at that time so I was not
concerned where the funds went. I just wanted to help out as best I could.
OH wait I take that back I believe the donations were for the forums.

OK, let me clear a couple myths I have seen thus far:
* Canonical/Ubuntu Foundation can accept donations. How do I know? I know
people who have donated, and at one point, there used to be a page on
ubuntu.com that listed donations (1.5 to 2 years ago I believe).
* Not all LoCos need money. Thi
