Great !

Thanks of amazon open China store, we could use kindle devices smoothly than before, and the most impotent is 
we could make our donation to GNOME directly !

I will publish the new donation way to Beijing GNOME User Group website[1] to make more people know this new 
way, after all is setting up.

Thank you all!
