On an unrelated note; I can't make head nor tails of some of those csv
files... Are we really collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars daily???
Depends on the day :p We had a 2 million dollar day when we opened the
floodgates in the US, UK, CA, AU, and NZ (We had five; I think NZ was the
fifth.)
Keep this in mind though; if the fundraiser is expected to raise ~35M
that's ~100k a day we need to raise! And the amount we're expected to raise
keeps going up.

Not uncommon for Xkcd :p
Although the article being used is changing so rapidly that it's unlikely
to cause much disruption.

Did you see this April's Fool Day comic on
xkcd, with an interactivly
growing dog: "The dog gains a pound for every $10 donated to the
Wikimedia Foundation via this link."

Is this real? How can it tell how much has been donated to WMF through
this comic? I see that there is a special campaign reference in the
donation link but how can it fetch the amount?
Has there been any cooperation / negotiation between Randall Munroe and
the WMF beforehand?
