I've heard from a few different people myself, who are just dying to donate to Inkscape, but can't find a satisfying way to do it. Most of they want Inkscape listed in their favorite crowd funding type of site. Like they set aside a certain amount of their income on one site, and divide it up among all the projects they want to support. But there are several of those.
I wonder if it would work for 1 person to sort of adopt such a project, whose job is to maintain accounts in a few of those places? Not that I can volunteer for that myself.
For now, I just refer them to the Support Us page https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/ Wish I had a better answer.
All best, brynn

Hey folks. So I've recently branched out into several FLOSS communities, and so I'm exposed to a lot more wishlist items. Generelly they are things on the roadmap, and many have to do with the SVG spec.
When someone expresses a need for *x-feature* I generally send them to this page to help: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/svg-standards-work/
I was wondering if this is the best thing to do.
I get a lot of requests to help the project from people who I help get to grips with Inkscape and other FLOSS.
Can someone provide a list of current links to parts of the project that need financial aide? I can sort out who to send where (based on the features they are interested in). But a comprehensive list of donation links would be awesome. :)
Thanks! -C
