We need to make a few changes to our HTML form and that should be it. We would need to make the following changes to the form:=20 - Change "cmd" from "_s-xclick" to "_xclick-subscriptions" - Add "a3" input which define the amount of the donation - Add "p3" input with a value of "1" (every month) - Add "t3" input with a value of "M" (Monthly) - Add "src" input with a value of "1" (recurring) - Rename "item_name" to remove "$10/month" - Remove references to "for a monthly amount of $10" There are many way to handle "a3" (the donation amount): - We use HTML radio elements like the rest of the form - Use javascript to create the form (unnecessary) - ... While I was procrastinating this evening waiting for Miguel to be ready to go home, I made a sample page with most of these edits: http://www.487massave.org/friends/step2.html It should be live and connect to Paypal... I did not test all the way, I don't have any privileges to make changes to the actual page but will be happy to walk anyone to the changes I made to the page above.

That ma= kes sense.

I think providing some transparency on the terms for those who want to cancel is a good idea. On a different note - if we are providing more monthly options for subscriptions, should we providing more / different gifts for those who subscribe at a higher level? Stormy has created the Zazzle account, and Andreas and the art team are working on some artwork we can add to the various merchandise. I don't know how we fulfill orders at the end of the year, but it's just an idea.

Yes, that's possible, we would just need to expose "t3"= (Day, Week,
Month or Year). Only Month and Year make sense.

A question to the group this raised to me. We might want to have some
language here about how people would manage their "Donation
Subscription". Say something has a crunch or something, we might want = to
know when they sign up how to deal with resigning or things like that
(would seem like a nice this to make them aware of). Exposing some of
the terms and conditions from Paypal might be a good idea.

What do you think?

In order to do this, we will need to introduce some JavaScript
dependency on the page to 'compose the form post based on user input.
If we are ok with that, I am happy to prototype it (should take 1 hour
or so). Right now the form is very clean and HTML only meaning it would

I've even had people email me asking me to cancel their subscription for them and there's no way we can do that - they have to do it through Paypal.

While I think some gifts are popular (like stickers) and people pick the minimum amount that enables them to get that gift, I don't think most people donate for the gift. The idea behind the tshirt was that it was unique to Friends of GNOME, so people can wear it to show their support.

Yes, that's possible, we would just need to expose "t3"= (Day, Week,
Month or Year). Only Month and Year make sense.

A question to the group this raised to me. We might want to have some
language here about how people would manage their "Donation
Subscription". Say something has a crunch or something, we might want = to
know when they sign up how to deal with resigning or things like that
(would seem like a nice this to make them aware of). Exposing some of
the terms and conditions from Paypal might be a good idea.

What do you think?

In order to do this, we will need to introduce some JavaScript
dependency on the page to 'compose the form post based on user input.
If we are ok with that, I am happy to prototype it (should take 1 hour
or so). Right now the form is very clean and HTML only meaning it would
work on virtually ANY browser and be totally accessible though I have
not tried. Adding JS might alter that. Let me know if we want to proceed with this and I can get it done.

Best,
-Guy

I took the action item to discuss it with this list and to come up with some messaging for existing advisory board members.

Stormy --0015175cdc6080d8510470e70809 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi GNOME Marketing Team,

At the Advisory Board meeting at GUADEC we = discussed raising advisory board fees. I took the action item to discuss it= with this list and to come up with some messaging for existing advisory bo= ard members.

* In the past year we've accomplished a lot from= marketing to co-locating an event with KDE to announcing plans to ship GNO= ME 3.0.
* Hackfests are one of the key ways we get great things done (and the advis= ory board members all agree) but depending on them to support all of them t= urned out to be a bad idea in a downturn. We need to make sure the income w= e can count on can support key hackfests without additional money.
* We are getting better at doing more with less - we're being more effi= cient. Take the travel committee for example.

When I read the above bullet list as a sponsor, the first three give reasons why I could give more money. The rest to me sound to me like reasons why I should not give more money (maybe even less) because GNOME is more efficient, raising money in other ways, more sponsors etc. The 4th point about GCDS you could change in: Co-locating GUADEC with KDE has had very positive effects for the Free desktop movement in general but is financially less profitable for GNOME itself. However in general I'd change the messaging to what will we do with the extra money: (That sounds more positive in my opinion) 1. More hackfest. These have proven to be hugely successful and speed up development 2. More permanent staff. Having Stormy on board has been a huge success (some examples) E.g. a permanent sysadmin can make sure that people do not have to wait that long for certain sysadmin stuff to happen. 3. You can offer the sponsors some of these things (logo page with sponsor story, quartely updates on roadmaps etc. etc.)we discussed a while ago for the premium package So basically tell them what they get for the 10,000$ extra and as a final remark: the fees have been 10.000$ for 10 years already.

I don't have all the necessary facts, but I'd probably frame it this way (the ? indicates where you'd need a find an appropriate word to describe the facts): 1.) We'd like to be able to ... * employ a sysadmin. * establish a regular (?), reliable (?) schedule for hackfests. 2.) These are good ideas, because ... * GNOME's popularity and the size of its community depends on integrated and running web infrastructure. There are some efforts underway to make this happen, for example, ... (insert list of planned sysadmin activities here.) This is a lot to do, which is why we need a regular sysadmin. * Hackfests are one of the key ways we get great things done. (Insert success stories here). In the following year, we planned to care about (insert list of plans here). We need to make sure the income we can count on can support key hackfests without additional money. 3.) We did our part on making this happen: * We raised money in other ways, like Friends of GNOME which has raised $20,000 this year! (a comparison to the previous year would be nice here.) * We've signed up 3 new sponsors. Given the current economy, that was a great result. It's reasonable to assume to pick up some more when the economy gets better, again. * We established (?) a travel committee, which greatly improved the GNOME Foundation's efficiency in sponsoring travel. By organizing lodging as well as approving airfare, they were able to substantially increase the number of people who received travel assistance. For GUADEC 2009 they managed travel assistance for 39 people for $31,838. Compare that to 36 people for $41,000 in 2008. 4.) However, it turned out to be insufficient. 5.) Thus, we ask you to consider to raise your support (by accepting (?) a raise in advisory board members fees): * After all, advisory board fees have been steady for 10 years. Inflation, the value of the dollar and the economy have all changed during that time. ($10,000 in 1999 is only $7892 in today's dollars.) * And you will profit from these plan, too. After all, (link reasons from (2) to advisory board member's interests here).

Hi!

While working on putting some content in the defined layout, some
changes in the template seemed obvious for us that didn't came before.<= br> So (for those who don't access the shared dropbox folder), this is
what we have by now:

http://vinicius.depizzol.com.br/gnome-website/= content/download/index.html

I'll work on this weekend to finish the stuff Carsten listed in his
mail[1], like forms, call to action boxes and all the missing html
parts, and also try to help on organizing the ready content in the
pages.

I looked for some docs about plone theming, but they look quite scary=
for me. But I swear I'll try :).
