Yeh I'd agree but it's probably easier to find a core group of
enthusiasts willing to give £5 than it is to find a large group of
people willing to give a little less. I believe the main focus is to get
people with a real interest and commitment from which they can work on
wider groups. This to me makes a lot of sense, just a pity there wasn't
an option to give a little bit less.

A target value would probably have been best, but so far it's looking
like it's on track, let's hope it works out.
