Which list of countries on which german site?

http://squeak.org/Download/SqueakDVD/

should have a link to pay via paypal (which is definitly not a german  
company),
where you just pay via your existing paypal account or credit-card if  
you have
none. At least it used to be like this.

Now that I have a look at it, it seems that it's not very  
international, that page.
(Why, oh why?) And the "pay with creditcard" option is gone, too.  
Paypal sucks.

I have planed since months to set up a kagi shop instead of paypal...  
but kagi is
quite a hassle to set up (easier to use, though), and as i have not  
manged to do
it since a year, I wonder if I should claim that it will ever happen...

It seems the SqueakDVD/CD paypal pages default to german and the
SqueakFoundation donation paypal page default to french. Since the
Squeak.org site is in english maybe both paypal pages should default to
english ?
There seems to be some settings to do that in the paypal account
management webpages .

There is also a preference to set a Paypal Account Optional preference
so people can pay without a paypal account.

I can only see "Language encoding" and that's set to "Westen European  
Languages (including English)".

The language preference for the account was already set to english.

I think I fixed the pages to display in English. Can someone verify this ?
http://squeak.org/Download/SqueakDVD/
Press the 'BUY NOW' button and see what language the page is in.
Do the same for
http://squeak.org/Foundation/SupportSqueak/



I found this description to turn on Account Optional:

To turn PayPal Account Optional on:
1. Log in to your PayPal account at https://www.paypal.com.
The My Account Overview page appears.
2. Click the Profile subtab.
The Profile Summary page appears.
3. Click the Website Payment Preferences link in the Selling Preferences
column.
The Website Payment Preferences page appears.
4. Scroll down to the PayPal Account Optional section of the page.
5. Select ON to turn PayPal Account optional on.
6. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and click Save.

There is no "PayPal Account Optional" on that page for the Squeak  
e.V. account...

I tested from another computer and the Account Optional showed up
correctly. I could be a cookie issue...

No, It seems there is no "Acount Optional" available for german paypal accounts.
And no direct payment.

Hm, it seems to work with the donations button to SqueakFoundation via
the ESUG account. Could payment go trough that account ?

It would need to be configured. The swiftcd account of squeak e.v. of  
course send bills to squeak.ev, and so on... maye on
a future iteration.
