Yes, the donation bar is good to know how things are going. AFAIK, 
by now the response is not quite good. So sure, some posts in bgo 
will help.

By the way, I'd like to have a blog in gnome.org to help in this. I have
one in blogspot, but it is in Spanish, so I think is better to start another
one just for the gnomie things in English. Does anyone knows the 
process having a blog in gnome ? (I'm foundation member)

Cheers,
