I agree that making a 'donations' link would be a good gesture. However, one of the issues with blind donations is that you don't really have any say in what the money is actually going to support. With bounties, cash can be directed at specific issues rather than a general account. This also motivates developers outside of the Haiku organization to contribute project code. There may be some Linux/BSD geeks out there with skills to contribute whom would rather remain ouside of the official development teams, all that really matters is the code.
