That was the point of the study. Intrinsic motivators alone ("help
make the world a better place") were MORE effective than combined
motivators ("help make the world a better place, and here's 100 bucks
for your effort").

Something I wanted to do but fell off my plate is to set up a kube
"janitors" effort. This has been pretty effective in the Linux
kernel, finding ways for people who didn't know the whole kernel to
contribute, clean up, and earn an identity ("I'm on the kernel
janitors team!"), and take a ton of tasks off the backlog. It needs a
rally point, a website, a logo, and some serious effort cataloging
initial work items.
