Michel, if you give me your Paypad details I'll donate a (small -- don't
have a regular income at the moment) amount directly.

Everybody who has a Paypal account or credit card can pay through Fundable,
and everybody who has a credit card can pay through Paypal, so I don't see
what is the advantage of Fundable in this case.

If some people prefer Fundable over Paypal for whatever reasons, we could
first make a public call for Paypal donations and then start a new Fundable
collection for the rest. If we get 120$ through Paypal and 120$ through
Fundable, we have already reduced the fee by half.

As I understand it, Fundable collections that don't close successfully don't
cost anything, so we could just tear down the current one and open up a new,
smaller one, without any problems.

Best regards
	Christian
