I have, with some misgivings, set up a donations page:
http://cygwin.com/donations.html
This is something that I've wanted to do for a while and, IIRC, I've
even previously gotten buy-in from other developers and package maintainers.
If other package maintainers want to add their links, please send me
private email with the appropriate info and I'll do so post-haste.
