I beg to disagree. All donors donating <100EUR can still see their donation counted in the donations-total just like they do right now, just that we don't use a progress bar anymore to show percent of any arbitrarily picked next stage goal. Rather we display donations-total in a numeric way just like we do with donors right now. Then we can use the progress bar to show a final goal of 1000 donors, with an intermediate goal of 200. Until Nikolaus fixed his SQL query we show total donors, after the fix we show total-donors>=100. I think that's a pretty good indication of how many devices we need to produce
What's wrong with this approach?
I suggested it since 3 days now.

I also don't think the text is that brilliant (I may say this since I think it's mainly my authorship). The text doesn't explain what's the real goal - when I read "let's build 1000 devices!" I go "hum! go ahead! I won't stop you"

on a footnote: a zillion internet blogs have quoted our campaign now as "trying to reach 25k" - it looks insincere to now change that to 100k. Particularly without much rationale given. I can't support that.
