Well the donation is basically mini version of the Annual Report we are
about to publish in 10 days therefor it makes little sense to me to put
it up on gnome.org.
 
I do think there is interesting things we could do with the donation
letter, such as agree to publish one every quarter with a digest of the
latest happenings withing the GNOME community, those make it more or
less into a newsletter.  

Also think we should consider to make the donation letter html so we can
include images and a nicer layout, or at least provide a link a html
version (Allan had some ideas around that and even had a design).

Maybe its a good idea to set-up a separate wiki page about this, I think
its definitely a good agenda item for a future meeting.
