I don't know about Chris but for us to do that you are going to have to come up with (even with a discounted rate) 20k+. That is with a significant discount off of our normal rate. What I think your best course of action is: Pick 1-6 feature in priority that you would like to see completed. Put out a call for developers to bid on the features. Based on your own professional decision pick a developer that makes you comfortable (regardless if they are a committer). Offer to also pay a committer to help review the code should you find someone that makes you comfortable. For example, it is very possible you will find someone cheaper than CMD to handle your priorities but we could easily handle the review portion for a very reasonable fee and help make sure it gets committed. And of course the other options is patience :). 1.3 is receiving a ton of work right now and has been over the last several months. We are coming along. Sincerely, Joshua D.
