Yes, I agree with this approach and it's how BidforFix is envisioned to work. qgis should be an umbrella, guaranteeing the quality of the work and declaring the issues fixed and released (or not). The target should have substantial margin (25%) so that even if a couple of people decide to withdraw their bids in the last moment, or are unreachable the rest should keep the dev happy. In general, this is new territory so the participants should be comfortable with some degree of uncertainty. However, our experience shows that the atmosphere around the campain is quite positive and boths sides usually try to do their best.
