Hello guys,

I continued working on the backend of the donation stuff since contract work
with the payment providers is soon coming to an end I would like to be able to
accept donations through this as soon as possible.

So the backend work has kept me busy for weeks now and I have a rough version
running that sends out the right emails with SEPA mandates in PDF forms and so
on...

On the frontend, this is now super easy to use and I implemented everything that
we need so far:

  https://git.ipfire.org/?p=ipfire.org.git;a=commitdiff;h=2c361abc1a73d9c7b3ff8d
82da5e769e7378a128

The huge change in donate.html is just because I added a <form> tag and indented
every line in the block by one tab.

All the magic happens in handlers.py. When a user clicks on the donate button,
we will send a request to my accounting software with all the details and then
redirect the user to the right payment page. Fairly easy. So far they will never
come back.

As you can see in the code, I added dummy values for the name, address and some
other inputs. So far I think we don't even have designs for that part of the
donation form. Is that correct Maurice?

@Sven: Is the application back up and running on your development machine?

Best,
-Michael
