Bug#705209: www.debian.org: Ask for a donation while people are downloading Debian
Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Zack suggested filing as a bug in a discussion on
debian-sponsors-discuss. Please see
lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-sponsors-discuss/Week-of-Mon-20130408/000022.html
for more info.
In summary it seems Eclipse is asking people to donate to the project
during downloads, and that has significantly increased donations. The
thought is that this seems like a great idea that we should also do.
