This kind of plan wouldn't raise priority on a specific task the way
that traditional incentive programs aspire to (and often fail to
anyway), but it would reward active development on the project space
in general. It also removes the demeaning aspect of traditional
incentives ("I'll give you $4 to spend 50 hours of your free time
working on this!"), replacing it with more of a "Good job! I
appreciate the hard work you put in!" feeling.
I like that idea very much.
The question remains if there are people ready to pay bounties or fulfill them.
Don't hesitate to give input things you would like (this can also be
to me directly if you don't want to post to on the list)
I guess it will be more the end users who will want to get a certain
functionality implemented.
I see that some of the item in 2006Wishlist where performed.

What would it take to change this idea into action?
greetings
