Thanks for the info Micah!

It was agreed in the meeting that Gandolf would investigate setting up
paypal, but it seems he hasnt yet, so I decided to get some information
about it.

moneybookers sounds better than paypal. Does moneybookers have the same
problem as paypal about the person who operates the bank account needing
to be the same as the one who does the paypal?

regarding the bank account: i think it was just felt important to be
able to take the money out of the moneygrabber/paypal and into the
account. So probably someone needs to be put on the account i guess.

I will take this back to the next meeting. Are you able to attend the on
on the 26th?

Jon
