Apparently the open collective entity is pending approval. 

We can't donate yet. 

Thanks Chris!

 GGs,

 OK, I think we have the beginnings of a plan. I propose we migrate
the List
 to groups.io, and set up an opencollective for collecting donations (
https://docs.opencollective.com/help/about/introduction). [1] I think
the
 advantage of using opencollective (or something similar) by
comparison to
 GoFundMe or direct PayPal payments to a person is that there's more
 accountability and long term stability. I am happy to set up the
group and
 migrate subscriber information, etc., to groups.io, and I have
started
 setting up a donation site
(https://opencollective.com/oldtools-list).

 How does that sound to the assembled? Any issues anyone sees with
groups.io
 or opencollective?

 Cheers,

 Chris
