This will be a good. Black holes can provoke a sense of wonderment, followed immediately by a facial tic. :-)

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.
