Comment (by jive):

 It is making it hard to run code sprints not having a PayPal button!

 * The wp-paypal button while free is not suitable (it is too complicated
 with a shopping cart and so on)
 * The https://givewp.com/ was more focused on our use case, code available
 on GitHub using a GPL license (https://github.com/impress-org/give). And
 once again I think we can pay for this if it enables our teams and
 supports an open source company produce plugins like this

 Other options:

 - I noticed the TGP was able to make a button using a call out action:
 https://www.osgeo.org/initiatives/foss4g-travel-grant-program/
 - Old website had one donate button, and each project had manual
 instructions asking sponsors to fill in a "special instructions" field
