My recollection of the conversation regarding Debian's paypal account (over a social dinner, where spit-balling on a variety of topics was underway) is that a hypothetical was posed:
If SPI can't offer paypal accounts to all projects due to paypal restrictions on number of accounts, then maybe no project should have one via SPI. It was meant to trigger a conversation about how SPI is trying to offer equivalent services to projects, not just to the first one one through the door with a good idea (another example is Slack for Nonprofits.) Anyway, after some back-and-forth, the conversation ended with: SPI needs to find a way to offer paypal services (or similar) to the other projects. This might mean restructuring things but definitely not taking a service / capability away from Debian. I think that this didn't register with all parties of that conversation, resulting in different take-away impressions. As a member and not an officer of it, I don't speak for SPI's Baord. -- Luca Filipozzi
