I'm coming to this late and maybe miss something, but is there anything wrong 
with the list of reasons on the old site? (the first 3, the 3rd one is not a 
reason :-)

Fading in and out one by one?

So you could have:

You want:
[reasons 1-3 rotating]
All this and more is done by KDE *with your help*

This looks fine to me, except, as others mentioned, it would be nice to move 
the email verification to a later point if possible. If the email is slow then 
I might lose interest/move on to another task while waiting for the 
confirmation and never get around to completing the sign-up.

On the other hand, perhaps this is a necessary evil to prevent mistyped emails 
being a big problem, or bot submissions

Unless it's needed for payment (where I guess the payment systems ask 
separately) I do not think there is a need to make people fill this in.

1) and 2) can easily be updated later imho. 3) and 4) I'd rather get right 
now.

Not sure if I commented on the overall design earlier... it's awesome :-)

Btw, I'm probably offline and therefore no further help on any of this until 
Tuesday.

Cheers,
Stu
