In fact instead of adding such a statement there, we should add it to
some permanent place on our website and/or Wiki. I.e. something to the
effect how we plan to use any money we gain through donations,
GOG.com, GSoC (Google) or any other means. On such a page, we could
also prominently feature the donation and GOG.com banners/buttons, and
list some things we actually *did* with the money in the past. Such
as: paying for IDA licenses for n people in year X; buying game Y;
paying for flight Z. And if there are any games we'd love to get
donated, we could list those there (like, Zak FM-TOWNS copies for
everybody would be great *ggg*).
Cheers,
Max
