Now that's exactly where my concerns lie...
Community donations tend to dissapoint time after time (I have seen this happening in so many projects... )

Also, if you tell me the dev is willing to pay from his own pocket, that isn't a healthy situation either...
What if the dev hasn't funds enough to keep on paying for all of this?
What if the dev decides to stop paying for all of this?
It's quiet a risk if the whole strategy depends on the funds of one single individu.

I hope you understand my concerns, I don't want to sound negative, just trying to be realistic on this matter.
