+1. I've been talking for years about a "donation thermometer" like
they have on Blender's homepage, or a "bounty tracker" like they have
on Haiku's website. There is no debate that lilypond.org shouldn't
ever be commercialized nor "monetized" in any way; however there has
been a "sponsorship" page since the LilyPond-design days, and as long
as it's clean, unintrusive and honest (i.e. not promising something we
can't deliver), it can only be seen as a way for our (numerous enough)
fans to show their appreciation.

Regards,
Valentin.
