+
+notes from email:
+
+* clearly point out its limits in protecting the sending users' privacy,
+just because there is a somewhat common misconception that bitcoin was a
+fully anonymous way of payment, and also because knowing these limits
+makes it easier for donors to donate
+
+http://eprint.iacr.org/2012/584.pdf
+
+* state how bitcoin can be better than standard bank transfers (possibly
+less monitoring and possibly more anonymity)
+
+* prefer (and state that we prefer) face-to-face donations with neither
+paper nor electronic trail whenever comfortably possible
+
+* explain how bitcoins can be bought in a couple places in the world in
+a way which preserves the donors' privacy as much as possible (think
+ukash, paysafecard, pre-paid credit cards, other kinds of pre-paid
+systems and vouchers) and with minimum losses in fees (which usually go
+to entities we specifically do not want to support); we should probably
+concentrate on the richer countries there (since this is where we'd hope
+most donations to come from)
+
+* generate bitcoin addresses in a way which maximizes donor privacy
+(e.g. I'm not sure whether it makes a difference in terms of a third
+party to correlate whether you create 100 addresses at the same or
+whether you spread it out across some days with random intervals)
