I like this idea. The problem is how to implement it. Most systems
(even paypal) actually disencourage donations. Many people do not have
a PayPal account, and they are not going to open one just to donate a
small ammount for a free book.

Before that I will have to find a publisher that accepts the book *and*
a copyleft licence. It is one think for a publisher to accept a copyleft
licence for a book about a hype topic from a famous author. Lua and
myself are not such a big hit.
