Gaudenz, thank you for having brought up this.

This is strictly linked to #613832, given that we need to define, once
for all, how we behave WRT Debian Trusted Organizations [1].  Given that
Debian money is held only by them (Debian does not exist in itself as a
legal organization), all of them could be listed in the donation page:

  <http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Auditor/Organizations>

[1] technically and constituionally speaking, everything has already
    been decided, see below.

Fully agree.

I am against that, given that SPI no more has any special position WRT
any other trusted organizations since version 1.3:

  <http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution.1.3>
  <http://www.debian.org/vote/2006/vote_003>

My idea would be simply to have an alphabetical list of the trusted
organizations who we know accept donations for Debian.  Another option
would be to have them listed by continents.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
