I wouldn't say this is cowardice.

If they just immediately cash out all donations at MtGox, then you might as well just send them cash anyway.

I figure they were raising bitcoins half as an experiment and half as a rainy day fund.  They've got more than enough for their rainy day fund.  Any bitcoin donations you could make will just sit around and wouldn't do much good.  They might as well shut it down so you will donate to another cause that will actually use the bitcoins.

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

I hope they're taking this time to investigate how best to operate with bitcoin without getting themselves into trouble with the government.

yeah, that is a better theory!
