The donations were done via PayPal and those in charge decided PayPal wasn't trustworthy for use by non-profit organizations who don't have official government non-profit status.
Have the leadership of Arch considered applying for official non-profit status or joining an organization such as the Software Freedom Conservancy[1]?
I had a friend offer to help Arch become 501(c)3 a while ago; but that is an expensive and involved process (usually a couple thousand dollars and a couple hundred hours of work). I think joining the conservancy would be a great move for tax reasons. --Kaiting. -- Kiwis and Limes: http://kaitocracy.blogspot.com/
