Why aren't you just asking if you can have this hardware paid from the
GIMP account? We are getting several hundred dollars of donations per

Ok then it seems like we're on the same page, I am also skeptical about
bounties for features, there's just to much potential problems with that.

There has recently been much discussion on how long it will take to
finish gimp 2.8, and whether donations could speed this up.
Krita (KDE's image manipulation program) recently asked its users for
€3000 to sponsor one of their old GSOC students to work for 3 months.
they raised over €4000

I don't think that donations can speed up GIMP development. On the
contrary, paying some developers for their work is more likely going to
demotivate others.
Don't know why this shouldn't work with the GIMP projekt. This works well
for TYPO3 and Blender well too.
