As the funding amount of 50k Euro is approaching its goal, will we cut the
funding drive off once it reaches 50K or will we stay the course for the
balance of remaining days? I would vote to keep going for the course of the
remaining days as per SC decision:

"All donations will be used for setting-up The Document Foundation, and
after the fifty thousand Euro has been collected for the capital stock,
donations over the top of that sum will be fed directly into the future
foundation's budget to cover operating costs."

If we do stay the course and keep the funding open for the remaining days,
I would propose that we make provisions on amending banner to show an amount
larger than the 50K once it has been reached and leave the bar open with no
target amount showing other than the 50K has been reached.

There should also be content written up to explain the reason for the
continued fundraiser with explanation of where the funds can/will be
applied.

This should be planned out before the 50K amount is reached.

The fund raising event has been great in bringing in the community
together. Again, hats off to all organisers of the event.

Cheers

Marc


IMHO, let it roll. Set up a page where accounts can be exposed and
contribuitors can check out where their donations are going to.

Rgds.
