To be honest I prefer the distributed approach ("the more eyes the better")
of sending the code out to be reviewed by volunteers on various
security-related lists.  I suppose the two could be combined, but I'd hate
to see a paid person in any way decrease the efforts of volunteers (or our
motivation to find such volunteers).  Just my two cents.
