I was wondering about how easy it would be to have the donation link/box
that is on the left side of the
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Main_Page .

it's actually not that complicated. As far as I know, you can easily copy the HTML code, which would be:

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"; method="post">
    <p>
    <input name="lc" value="EN" type="hidden">
    <input name="cmd" value="_donations" type="hidden">
<input name="business" value="paypal@documentfoundation.org" type="hidden"> <input name="return" value="http://www.documentfoundation.org"; type="hidden">
    <input name="undefined_quantity" value="0" type="hidden">
<input name="item_name" value="The Document Foundation" type="hidden"> <input name="amount" size="4" maxlength="10" value="10" style="text-align: right;" type="text">
        <select name="currency_code">
            <option value="EUR">EUR</option>
            <option value="USD">USD</option>
            <option value="GBP">GBP</option>

I was thinking that it would be proper to have such a link on the NA-DVD
page [front index page of the domain].  It would be another place where
someone can click on a link to donate some money to LO to help pay for
the server costs, etc.

That would be very much appreciated, definitely! :-)

It would be nice for me to have a link to help pay for my server costs,
but LO need it more for the "cost of doing business", including server
and marketing costs.

Oh, do you have expenses for creating the NA-DVD?

My biggest cost is the cost of making and handing out the DVDs to local users and businesses. DVDs and DVD cases do not grow on trees. For a person on a fixed income, that cost can add up. I have never charged anyone for my DVDs.

Sure, LO's costs are more than mine, much more. Yet, local people still can have "marketing costs" to cover. I would do more marketing, local print and such, if I had the income to do so.
