Add PGCAC donation option

От

Дата:
The attached patch adds an option to the donations page to allow people to donate to PGCAC, the NPO responsible for managing and protecting project domain names and trademarks etc.

Any comments before I commit?

Shouldn't that be "such as domain names"?

+<input class="btn btn-primary" type="submit" name="submit" value="Donate to PGCAC" />

The other donation buttons are links to pages about donation, and not direct
actions (but I understand why this is).  Maybe it should say "Donate to PGCAC
by PayPal"?

+1. I definitely don't think we should make a form-post-to-paypal directly without saying it's PayPal.

Even more, I think it'd be better to lin kit to a page on the cac homepage which has the link -- both so it works the same as the others, but also so that we (pgweb) don't end up with "ownership" of the actual paypal code in the form.

And if needed, +1 for adding the button in general -- I think the only reason we haven't had a button for pgcac before is that pgcac has asked for there not to be one :)

Well spotted.
 

+<input class="btn btn-primary" type="submit" name="submit" value="Donate to PGCAC" />

I'm hesitant to put that as we know it puts some people off because they think they need a PayPal account, when in fact they actually don't because the page it takes them too offers a direct card payment option as well.

That's not entirely unreasonable. Let me add a page to the CAC site, then I'll update the patch.

And here's an updated patch with a link to https://www.postgres.ca/donate instead of direct to PayPal.
