I'm planning to make a donation. According to fundraising core messages,
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2009/core_messages/en
matching donation duration is "limited time", while FAQ refers to
total amount of
matching donation, and not to duration.

I understood these circumstances as follows:
matching donation has already started (since fundraising campaign started),
and will end once it reached $500,000. Is it correct?

Q2. Donation from Omidyar Network will be matched donations between $100
and $9,999. I think: donations which is subject to matching donation
is not limited
to which is done by USD only, but also will be applied to any other currencies
equivalent to that is between $100 and $9,999. Is that right?

Hope I understand correctly.....
