> I'm releasing Org 8.0.

Donors, please pause before you make any donations.  

Before apportioning all of your donations to a single individual, just
pause for a moment.  

Is Orgmode work of a single individual or a community effort.

1. Split your donation in proportion to the contribution of each
   contributor.  

   a) Do you want to bear a part of hosting charges of Orgmode.org
      webservers?

   b) Do you want to support a specific individual developer.

   c) Do you want to show your appreciation of one of the many regulars
      in this list whose help and response you can take it for granted.

   d) Which portions of Orgmode you rely on - Outlining/Core Org,
      Agenda, Clocking, Exporter, Babel.  Do you know the authors of
      these modules.

   e) How about people who update official and unofficial documentation
      and write Worg tutorials.

2. Make a targeted donation right and approach the contributor directly
   on how the funds can be transfer funds to him.  If this not possible
   and you want to make an umbrella donation to the project, insist
   upfront on how you would like your donation to be split.
