To the contrary, if the shop is not operated by us, the payment gateway area
should look utterly different (albeit with a GNOME logo) such that the user
understands their payment is being processed by a different organisation. We
have seen the results of both methods with linux.conf.au (where the payment
gateway is operated by a sponsor), and it is *vastly* better to make the
organisational and operational distinction clear: It *is not* 'gnome.org' or
the GNOME Foundation processing the payment.
