I think we should modify the submission to say "almost all" or "nearly all"
or just "most" rather than all, since that acknowledges those others who
kindly donated.

did i give you edit access? if so do think about editing but
bear in mind this is *not* public. it is *privately* for the
fosdem organisers to decide to give us the devroom or not.
(i.e. the question to ask yourself: do the organisers
*really* need to know that we receive < 0.50% of funds from
other donors? is mentioning that an aggravation and distraction
or does it help us get the devroom?)

which reminds me that adding that anonymous donation onto
the front page would be a good idea, if you can do that?
