80n is not to blame nor is the foundation.

There was a push from the OSM Sysadmins (yes, I'm to blame here) to get 
the donation stuff up and running quickly because we are getting nervous 
about the approaching 0.5->0.6 migration weekend. Without a new server 
it would be a nightmare.

I apologise, yet may I suggest that it is not too late to setup what you 
suggest; pending agreement from those involved.
