Donations issue on website(s)

[Jesse DuBord]

So, there've been multiple users across the years who have actually 
asked how to contribute or to donate to Kdenlive. Amazingly on the 
Kdenlive website, neither the menubar nor on any page or footer of the 
website. A G+ member was directed to the KDE website 
(https://www.kde.org/applications/multimedia/kdenlive/), but even when 
you try to put in an amount and donate, you can't specify that you want 
the donation to go to the Kdenlive project. Both of these, I believe, 
are very probably deterring a lot of potential donations to the project.

I'd like to propose that:
(1) IF the link mentioned above is the best place to donate to 
Kdenlive, then a menu link with the title "Donate" or "Give" be placed 
at the kdenlive.org website header, which would point to 
"https://www.kde.org/applications/multimedia/kdenlive/".
(2) That the KDE admin staff would provide some clear path for users 
who want to contribute financially to to the project, without the 
ambiguity that it's just going to some big KDE funding pool and never 
reaching devs like JBM and the others.

I feel like there's a big missed opportunity to acquire donations, here.
