I'm not disappointed, nor is it a defence but an actual fact that the money donated has gone into the development of a new forum software whether you want to accept that or not.
In that case I apologise if I got it wrong, will the new forum be open-source or custom coded?
Any new donors giving 1BTC each at over $7000 will not require all that financial clout to go in to development so naturally the question arises as to exactly where the money has gone. The same way a list is provided to see the names of the donors it would provide clarity if a list was provided showing how much of the donations were spent and for which purpose etc. That provides clarity.
You can take a look in this page which is accessible when you click on DONATE and start counting how much the forums had collected from donations over years

And you can also search in the forums and you will find topics where the donations, funds or whatever was spent and how much. I will give you an example

Enjoy reading and don't take anyone to the court please
