Hi, I really like gis.stackexchange bounty mechanism [1]. Issues could have a "start a bounty" button, exactly like the gis.stackechange. Users could allocate any amount between 50 and 500 bounty points, in 50-point increments. Any user (other than the one reporting the issue) can ass bounty points.
How they get bounty-points? Donations to QGIS (managed by PSC) awards bounty-points to that user/company/community. An 1.000,00 € donation would award 1000 bounty-points. They can invest the bounty points to solve issues. Developer(s)/ able to solve the issue would be refunded (in real money) according to the number of bounty point. This wouldn't be difficult to implement, I think. The mechanism is really transparent, for users and for developers.
