How do we know, or is there a mechanism to give us feedback about what 
our donation(s) would actually be used for? I realize that the wiki page 
talks about what is needed, but by the time money is donated, it might 
actually go to something else. Some nonprofits allow you to "adopt" a 
project or item to put your money toward.

It would seem that this might be a nice personal touch to the process, 
perhaps encourage more donations.
Also, any idea about how this might interact with US tax laws (re: 
tax-deductible status)?
