I went ahead and made another pass.
I stared at the PG SPI page a bit more and noticed (1) it only covered the Paypal method and (2) the Paypal button that page has identical code to ours. So I kept things on our page as is, with a few wording tweaks. It's better if we minimize the number of clicks that someone needs to make to donate.
What do you think of this changeset?
Well, my primary goal here was to eliminate the need for updating the .org site in the face of SPI related changes, so I feel like we don't really accomplish that if we leave the donation link as is. Additionally, I'd like to reduce the surface area of Paypal on the whole process, which makes this feel like a second strike.
FWIW part of my plan with all this is to also submit a patch to the SPI website which updates the logo / wording and adds a direct link to the click and pledge credit card option (ideally above the paypal option), so there would still be an extra click but I think it's not too much extra overhead. If you really want to have a direct link to donate from the .org page, I guess leave the paypal one for now, and I'll hopefully come back with a patch to change it to click and pledge once I get the info.
