[Marketing] evolt.org giving wall

[Martin]

Meant to mention this the other week, but forgot.

I spent a wee bit of time throwing together this:
http://www.acornparenting.org:8080/donation_wall

It's a proof of concept of the donation wall thingy, running on the eouk
zope server.

It already supports:
1) multi-currency donations
2) donations in kind
3) anonymous donors
4) donors with or without an existing weo account
5) batching (it's a soft limit, set to 2 atm) with orphan control
6) 1-off & regular donations
7) role-based security
8) Through the web management of donations

What it doesn't do is:
1) Total donations
2) Calculate and a donations bar
3) auto-convert currencies
4) look pretty enough
5) enable searching for and direct URL viewing of any given donation

(1) and (2) are fairly trivial when I get a moment
(3) is a non-starter I think - it's doable but not particularly easily
(5) searching is probably doable, but not without starting again. Direct
    URL viewing should be possible too.
(4) is where I need help.

For those interested, the presentation layer is a couple of simple Zope
Page Templates, which should be manageable via WebDAV
