Mike,

Without comment or opinion on the eventual approach, "cut-off $" or
monetization of non-cash contributions, a person/entity should receive a
brief "Thank you!" directly from PostgreSQL.org  -  regardless of the
size of the $$ contribution.  As it is now, if you go the SPI route, you
get a confirm from SPI but NADA from PG.


This is a technical problem that hopefully we'll have worked out soon.  I'm 
supposed to get a list of donors on a monthly or bi-monthly basis so that 
I can send them thank-you e-mails.  Unfortunately, there seems to be some 
problem with this process that we haven't figured out yet.
