Hey there,

Way back when, I started a thread in the d.o webmaster queue about integrating some sort of donation framework within Drupal.org. The general idea had a bit of support, but reasonable arguments were presented for the ROI not being great enough.

And then I came across Flattr not too long ago, and thought it might fill the niche, so I updated the issue in the webmaster's queue:
http://drupal.org/node/719648#comment-3939672

Anyhow, I know that you guys (the maintainers) are active Drupal contributors, and so you've probably toyed with this idea already, but I just wanted to toss in my two cents :)

So does anyone think it might be viable? If you have any strong thoughts, it'd be amazing if you could post to the other issue!

Cheers

I hope it's okay to mark this issue postponed of the other one.
Once a decision for the drupal.org module was found we could work here.

No worries. Not sure whether attaching the suggestion to an old issue was such a great idea -- not seeing much interest compared to prior discussion.
Anyhow, just have to wait I suppose.

Not sure if you guys caught it, but this topic came up on its own in the comments of Morten's Drupal Planet post about a drupal app store:

Closing this old issue since it's just a discussion, and not active anymore.
