Thanks for the reply and I think it's fine to use the debian logo as
long as it's clear who the site is (not debian!) and who is asking for
paypal for.

Even better would be linking back to debian and encouraging people to
install it, as well as buy spare parts ;-)

Best wishes,

To me, the domainname "debian.as" makes it sound like a Debian website.

I didn't write anything about the domain name. If anyone wants, (get
delegated? and) complain under http://nic.as/udrp.cfm but I don't see
what good will come from prosecuting these debian supporters.
