We did have that, but IMHO failed. To my surprise there were more offers for bounties (even free GTA04 boards) than developers willing to do something. Maybe a bounty of 50/100 bucks doesn't attract anyone these days? Therefore, we now start the other way round. Find people first who generally want to work for the projects. This is what the developer network is for. So if you know anyone who wants to do software (or maybe some hardware) development, please invite them subscribe to the developer-network list. So that we can contact them directly when we need them (sending an e-mail through a list is better than just posting on a wiki and waiting for people to walk by). And they can say what the conditions are, that they really commit themselves to do something. This all has the positive side-effect that we get more developers from outside interested in this community. Nikolaus
