https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=682141#c0 Summary: Bug Bounties Classification: Mono Product: Mono: Tools Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: tools AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] QAContact: [email protected] Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0 Have you folks considered adding a bug bounty feature to your bug tracker? I ask because I sometimes find (usually cosmetic or in obscure cases like Large Fonts mode) bugs in Mono Windows Forms which annoy people, and when I am doing contract work it'd be handy if I could tell them, say, yeah this is a Mono bug, and maybe we could put $50 on a fix, etc. (honestly, to someone more familiar with the code base I can't imagine most of them being more than a half hour fix... problem is, takes forever to get familiar with huge code bases like the Mono class libraries...) I expect you could make some money from bug fixing in general if you knew which ones people were actually willing to pay to see fixed. For example, MWF CheckBox in both normal and button mode on Windows not using Visual Styles... how hard would that be? Large Fonts Mode, some layout panels not autoscaling their contents properly... These looks unprofessional and reflects badly on people developing software that uses Mono. There are literally hundreds of little annoying quirks in Mono like this, and I bet if you added the ability of people to chip in some money to go to a fix, you'd get quite a bit...
