I don't believe enough public software developers ask for or expect to receive donations.
The macro goal of OpenFare is to put in place a mechanism that developers can use to receive funds for developing public software. If there is a demand for donations, it needs to be brought to the surface. I don't think we're adequately over that hurdle.
Many content creators (youtubers, gamers, ...) get paid a lot. I think that there is room for public software engineers to ask for their share.
