Comment (by leavengood):

 I've updated the meter today (January 13th.) I used my current donation
 meter code to get the amounts so far for January:

 {{{
 There are 29 donations
 Total for USD: 656.08
 Total for EUR: 648.33
 Grand Total (at EUR to USD rate of 1.178200): 1419.94
 }}}

 So far there have not been any Amazon Payments donations. Someone mailed
 me a money order which I need to deposit, and then that can be added to
 the total.

 With the above amount in hand I manually updated haiku-os.org and haiku-
 inc.org.

 By the way, while the donation meters on the two sites look identical,
 they are separate pieces of code, so are updated separately. I intend to
 find a way to fix this, such as by using JavaScript from haiku-os.org to
 call into haiku-inc.org to get the information and then updating the meter
 "live." This is necessary since the sites are on totally different servers
 and service providers.

 My next steps are to experiment with some code for the "live updating" and
 figure out the best way to currently handle the donations from Amazon and
 bank deposits. The former can eventually be automated and the latter can
 just be maintained by hand since bank deposits are much more rare.

 The donation analysis will go on the back burner for a little bit (but
 hopefully not months.) Before I work on that I want to get the basics of
 this donation meter stuff done and also need to do the financial reports
 for 2014 and other years we are missing.
