No, there are several different affiliate links and the "opensde-21"
that was created by user malenki always landed in FOSSGIS's bank account
and was only transferred to OSMF in the months where, due to a donation
campaign, FOSSGIS transferred all OSM donations to OSMF.

The money still lands in FOSSGIS's bank account every month. During my
time as FOSSGIS treasurer it was between 100 and 300 EUR every month. I
have neglected updating the statistics (requires logging in to Amazon
and copy+pasting stuff) but I'll look into doing that, thanks for the
reminder. AFAIK the FOSSGIS financial statement released to the members
contains an extra revenue line that sums up the Amazon income.

Bye
Frederik
