I, for one, appreciate the freuqent updates. It demonstrates a few key things: 1) That the author is author lives by the famous open source proverb, Release early, release often. 2) That the author is actively involved in improving the software based on feedback. This is far better than a developer who allows their product to become stale. 3) That the author is personally invested in the improvement of this software. As for the donations, it's not at all inappropriate to solicit donations for open source software. Time == money. No doubt a great deal of time has gone and continues to go into the development of this plugin. If it bothers you, don't update with each release wait until its convenient for you. There is a new Linux kernel fairly often. That might be considered annoying too except that its a sign of progress.
