Open tx donations

Hi all,
Just an observation.
I have loved the opentx software for my radio and there are many great supporters, both from inside these forums and outside, like Kilrah covering so many forum questions and R.Scott Page with all of his super youtube videos. It's obvious this has taken a lot of time and passion. Has certainly saved me some time. So I clicked on the donate button... then my brain exploded.
Why on earth do you have so many choices for donation? Why not come up with some formula to allocate the funds rather than ask us to make a decision to donate to some specific person, for which I didn't recognize any of them? I almost didn't donate at all, because I felt like I should be donating to them all, and I just wasn't ready to do several separate donations. But I overcame the brain explosion and donated to the person who's running the forums, as it seems without the forums, no feedback, fixes or collaboration would exist. Of course the guys writing the code are left out, but I'm considering that more an issue with your donation schema than anything else. Just an observation, I suspect many will look and not donate at all. I'd be surprised if others haven't noticed.
