Method to accept donations
We have discussed in mailing lists briefly, how exactly we want to accept donations (since there should be an easy way to donate on our webpage). So far Paypal was the leader of the discussion.
Please say "yes" if you are OK with us getting the service of Paypal for these needs.

I haven't personally used flattr, but have seen it at many places. If it's even a weebit better than PayPal, I'll change my vote :)

I would not argue with any "paypal is not best" or "paypal bad" things, we are just seeking for a solution, where it is easy for people to donate, ie also massive solution, where people already have accounts. If we have most "abstained", I am afraid we will have no decision...

@raphaeljadot I understand;)-p . Just thinking of consensus and everybody being happy. Though seems to be hard with this one and at this point of time

Some alternatives we may want to investigate:
https://www.braintreepayments.com/
https://www.skrill.com/en/
http://www.firstdata.com/en_fr/home.html
https://www.merchantinc.com/paypal-alternative (this last one might be US-only though, just found it while googling "paypal alternative")
(might also want to ask any of them about special conditions for a non-profit)
