Can we move away from this policy if we have not already, so we can possibly
reach a site with no banners someday? (like most other open source sites)

I will reiterate my offer to chip in money to have the banners removed for
the first month after 8.0 is released. Is this possible with the current
arrangement, and if so, how much would need to be raised? If not, can we
at least lock any future promises into month-by-month agreements?
