Ah, then I apologize for blaming David. But given that you chose to move this discussion to -project@, I'd like to extend to you the same questions I asked to David. As I already wrote, I totally agree that Paypal is far from perfect, and, if there were some FLOSS-friendly payment processors available, I would love to see Debian advertise and use them. There's a simple path to scratch that itch: help design FLOSS-friendly payment processors, and help our TOs support them. However, in the meantime, I don't think that the problems with Paypal are a sufficient condition to refrain from using it. I actually see this discussion as similar to the one about the use of CDNs: CDNs are more an infrastructure issue than a free software issue; payment processors are a financial issue, not a free software issue.
