"It is to demonstrate our commitment to such developments, that we will now pay our collaborators in a mix of currencies, and part of it will be in Bitcoin. The first of the members of the P2P Foundation to be paid Bitcoin honoraries is our in-house researcher Nicolás Mendoza. This first income was payed 50% in Bitcoin, and we are committed to offer all of our cooperators the possibility to receive Bitcoin payments at their convenience." http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/why-the-p2p-foundation-is-paying-its-salaries-in-bitcoin/2012/03/28

Wait. They went from not accepting Bitcoin donations to paying salaries with them? [edit] I was thinking of the EFF.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Interesting question....It was up this morning when I read the post and sent a donation.
Everyone should send a donation when the site comes back - it's a great cause and very nicely written blog post about Bitcoin and p2p - everyone who has pledged in the kickstarters should donate here as well - they are doing far more than just accepting donations in bitcoin - do it!
