Let's let Robin to set priorities.

I don't know who would be in charge of setting the paypal account, but once created, I will commit a fixed monthly amount.

Each individual contributor can't put forward priorities, nothing would ever get done. Let robin use his judgment, which seems to be accurate and in ample supply.
