Overhaul the donation page and include donation information for individual developers

Ran locally, see attached screenshot


Description From Last Updated

I wouldn't name the figure, will need constant updating. Instead, 'We currently have some money in the bank...'

Should this maybe explicitly mention that the board and officers are unpaid volunteers too?

Move to first point, and remove 'While'. I think it's most important we emphasize the 501c3 first up.

Might want to add in the Amazon Smile link since we're set up with that properly now.

I'd add a 'if you'd like to contribute and have your name here to seek donations, please contact' etc.

    1. I've suggested removing the figure, the figure remains without any explanation of why you don't accept my suggestion. Am a little confused as the edit isn't as per my suggestion.

    2. It is updated, I don't know what you looked at, but you need to look at the latest version of the diff :)

    3. eh i dunno where Diff Revision 2 is, but I trust you on this one.

    1. Are you suggesting that anyone should be listed here? I'm not opposed to that, but I also don't want to open the flood gates without some sort of criteria.

    2. I'd suggest that approval would be at the discretion of a project lead. This may need to be raised at the next board meeting, however it's an opportunity to seek new contributors by suggesting they MIGHT be able to get officially recognised as a donation recipient for contributing.

    3. Sure, lets follow up on that later though. I think the criteria of being a recognized developer (in the about box) is enough criteria for now.

    4. Dropping this for now so I can merge

    I'd rephrase this more like:

    The officers and directors of Instant Messaging Freedom are unpaid volunteers, just like all the developers of the Adium, Finch, libpurple, and Pidgin projects. We have no paid staff and this will likely remain true unless drastic changes happen in the future.

    1. Whoops I had meant to mention "drastic changes in our funding". Not sure how that might affect you suggestion?

    2. Just add the "in our funding" in what I put above.
