I would prefer to leave it voluntary in all respects for now, and as uncomplicated as possible. If a distributor would like to donate some portion of all CD sales back, that'd be nice. I'm also going to try to get WC to chip in a small amount each month. I'm also more than happy to provide accounting information WRT donations and how they're being spent, it's just sort of moot right now given that we've no money to spend anyway. If the amount actually gets up to the 4 figure range somewhere, I'll also discuss any and all expendatures with the core team before making them. In the meantime, the simpler the better. I don't have time right now (or even usually at all) to get into really complicated fund-raising schemes and would actually prefer that such arrangements, if they're to be made at all, be done by 3rd parties who then simple present me with one unified deposit. It's complicated enough just producing the "product" here. :-) Jordan
