Thanks!  I re-enabled my donation button.  I had some trouble due to too
many and too big donations.  I have to keep track and pay taxes for
them.

Therefore, in future I'd prefer small, symbolic donations.  After all,
it's the thought which counts, not the money.  Actually, I'm more happy
about a 5 bucks donation from somebody who's really happy with Cygwin,
than with a 200 bucks donation from somebody who just want to read the
name of his or her company on the donations page.
