Description Dario Andres 2010-02-11 00:10:47 UTC 
Related to bug 226213
In the About KDE dialog of every KDE application; in the support KDE tab, there is a link to "donate/contribute" to KDE , pointing to www.kde.org/support  (the old meaning of this pages was "Support KDE with donations", now it is "get support from kde")

I don't know which would be the better option:
a) Revamp the dialog links on kdelibs to point to "donations/ and "getinvolved/"
b) Rename the "support/" folder in the site as "getsupport/"  and add a 404.php fallback redirect from "support/" to "donations/"

Some other websites are already pointing to w.k.o/support as "Get Support".
So, I think we should modify the About KDE dialog links.
Additionally, we could add a simple legend in the current w.k.o/support page, saying something like "Looking for a way to send donations? Click here" (or something like that)

About KDE dialog has been adjusted in Trunk.
