Hi Jerry,

thanks, would be great to have more donations !

Afaik we dont have a shared list of top "wanted features".
I have a private list for the components I work on .. but I guess it
would be a bit selfish to put it here :-)

So I think it would be best to put the donation on the feature you miss
the most yourself / the bug which annoys you the most !

(Or put it on the project itself, so we can use it e.g. for travel expanses)

Thanks & Cheers,
Alexander Schwinn
