This was brought up a few months ago, and I do not remember the answers.
For those who will be selling copies of their distribution DVDs, or
coffee mugs, tee-shirts, etc., there could be a listed line stating
something like the following: "A portion of this purchase is donated to
The Documentation Foundation and Marketing teams to help the pay for the
cost running their servers and the marketing items for the technology
shows." Then there would be something saying about TDF/LibreOffice
people and the marketers are all volunteers, and would benefit from
donated funds to offset the cost of the marketing materials.
So the question is, how do people who sell items, that are LO based, get
the donations to TDF and/or get it into the hands of the marketing
people to "help offset the cost of doing business"?
Now that there is LibreOffice documentation for all the modules [except
for Base] It may be the time to start looking into the process to sell
the distribution DVDs [NA-DVD and others], plus any mugs, shirts, hats,
etc., etc., that some individual or group will be offering. I think I
remember seeing a "donation" statement on Drew's "test" merchandising
page, Plus, I remember seeing it somewhere else. So, if Drew, and
others, collect donations, where does it go and who gets it?
NOTE: I do know that TDF/LO is in the process of chartering [making
sure it is done completely and correctly for all the various government
regulations involved], so there may not be an "official" TDF/LO banking
account in their name till that is done.
