We are not in need of the money. How about feature bounties? e.g. I need foo support in program bar, I open a bounty on bounty.gentoo.org for 50$ If someone implements it he gets x% of it, the rest goes to a good cause. This is a really strange idea, I know, but maybe this would motivate people to implement some features wanted by many. And it would motivate the implementation of "boring" work. Any comments?
