== From outside the US ==

The note about wire transfers is hidden inside the "Mail us a check" section. It would be nice to make it more prominent by moving it to a new section titled "From outside the US". The text could read:

Donations from banks outside of the US or not in US dollars should be handled by wire. Donors wishing to send a wire should contact <conservancy@softwarefreedom.org>.

You might want to team up with other donors to save international banking fees. Feel free to post to [[Mailing_Lists#General_Lists|iaep]]. If you're inside the EU you may contact [[User:Sascha_silbe|Sascha Silbe]].

== Membership ==

I would like to propose that Sugar Labs reconsiders adding a membership structure for donors. It appears this was already discussed in the oversight board meeting that took place 2008/09/19, as indicated in the meeting minutes excerpt:"We also discussed the idea of members dues, but reached consensus that it wasn't a good idea at this stage."
