Create a Bountie (

Pascal to Palm OS

Create 10 important Bounties (

we could cover the most important ideas we had about Summer of Code

All devels can go to the Bahamas. We can have a developers meeting on
Hawaii perhaps? (With all expenses payed of course)

Put on the Bank. A reasonably agressive application (like stock
market) can easely earn 20% a Year. Acctually you can get much more,
but this is a conservative view.
So in 1 Year you get: 200.000
And you can invest that amount each year forever. And what to do with
that amount? Ummm .... Bahamas every year + 100 bounties every year =)
Now I think we are making progress :^)
10000000 Eur
Is this enougth to buy Trolltech and make them switch to pascal?
