To Whom it May Concern: It is my desire to see both Linux (and Rockbox) ported to the iPod Nano 4G and 5G, however there does not appear to be an overwhelming interest among developers to see this get accomplished anytime soon, even though there appears to be a desire among the community. For this reason, I would like to propose offering a uniquely structured bounty of donations to see such tasks completed.
Attached you will find a document describing how I believe the bounty can be structured. Also attached is a spreadsheet briefly describing the milestones of the bounty and there respective payouts. These documents are a work in progress. The bounty milestones and payout percentages are simply my best guess and will need fine tuning. I am looking to find support amongst developers and project leaders for such a bounty as well as constructive criticism to make this successful. I am prepared to offer sizeable donations (i.e. $1-2k USD for each bounty initially) to get each of the bounties started (one bounty for the 4G and one for the 5G) and it is my hope that other interested individuals in the community will donate also. Thanks. -Jared
