Same here. My donation from 25 April bounced on 25 May with "unverified recipient".

Alas it seems HiFo isn't able (or willing) to sort that stuff. I apologize on behalf of BoD. Also for missing update on donation-list, which I myself would like to see updated with most recent data.

My donation done on 23/05 appears as unclaimed. Btw, this is the second time I donate, and the previous one just returned to me after one month time. Please, somebody must sort that out.

Unfortunately there has been difficulty setting up the PayPal linkage with the existing HiFo bank account. Currently only one Director can access the account, and the previous treasurer (Cosimo) resigned some time ago.

This was not resolved at the last HiFo meeting, and despite calls for new meetings there has been no action by the other Directors.

suggest a better one! When you want to donate to HiFo, I guess that old HiFo song is relevant on why that fails atm.
Or maybe I just misunderstood your rant. Sounded like you blaming Woody for his post.

For now you're free to use my paypal account which works. See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...24#post1326124 for details. Please state detailed purpose on any donation, like "forward to HiFo", "use as seem fit, for maemo.org", "for hardware", simply "for maemo", or whatever.

I'll eventually publish a balance of income vs expenses here and forward any excess of donations not explicitly assigned to techstuff/not-hifo to the Hildon Foundation account, whatever that may be that works, at that time.
Meanwhile we have always some hw to buy and some maemo related rented servers and stuff to pay for, so donations to me are appreciated. Currently my fixed expenses per month are ~70EUR, sure not much but atm it hurts a bit.

edit: since I thought it's a bit mean to have users follow double-redirection, just to find a h-e-n donation link, here a proper link:
[REMOVED SINCE THAT SERVICE NO LONGER AVAILABLE]

no no. I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm blaiming woody14619. He is the one that does all he can. I want to state that clearly.

The rant was against the rest of the HiFo which is blocking this and that makink problems here and there since a few months.

After all those problems the word HiFo means the pure evil for me

Just donated 10€ to your paypal rather than to HiFo, as long as the issues aren't resolved.
You should consider putting that donation-link in your sig.

Had that, until not long ago. effect been zilch. So I removed it. People have a right to get some proper explanation anyway for what they donate. Signature is too short to offer any such context or explanation.

For the record, I think this is a ridiculous situation. "This has not been resolved at the last meeting?" WTF? People are failing to give you money and you don't set up an immediate emergency meeting to resolve that? The message I am taking from that is that you don't need those donations. I have jus donated to joerg's account but a good practice in any business is, "always make it easy for people to give you money." Even CMOT Dibbler can tell you that.
