Actually any economic relationship with Amazon is going to be a politically 
sensitive topic around here. This is due to the large number of people who 
have an almost irrational hatred of Amazon because of their business 
practices. I for one don't care, and in fact use Amazon often, but we have to 
ask ourselves: 

Is the money we would get worth being viewed as selling our soul to devil by a 
not-insignificant number of our contributors and many in the free software 
community? 

I personally don't think the amount of money generated would be worth the 
grief. But that is just me.
