acceptable GTA04 price poll results:
up to 300 euro - 22%
up to 400 euro - 48%
up to 500 euro - 15%
up to 600 euro - 15%
Total votes: 27
It would be nice to find a sponsor (fosdem2013 conference), which
will be able to to compensate GTA04 price difference with the desired
~400 euros (for whom 13 voted)..!?

The hardware GTA04 is based on one person (Nikolaus), the software

But I am afraid we really need a broader basis of manpower.
I think it's unfair to mention only Nikolaus and Radek. There are
many
people working to push the GTA04 forward:

http://git.shr-project.org/git/?p=meta-smartphone.git;a=history;f=meta-openmoko/conf/machine/om-gta04.conf;hb=HEAD

I don't think "we" necessarily "need" any more manpower. To say
that is
to say: I want people to do things for me. Indeed, we all want
1000
programmers to start working on FSO and QtMoko so that our phones
become
sweet bastions of freedom and coolness. Alas, there is only us.
It is worth remembering that a factor in attracting programmers is
the
ratio between (1) how much effort we spend complaining about how
few
programmers the are and trying to attract more, and (2) how much
effort
we spend creating useful systems with a small number of
programmers.
Paradoxically, a focus on the latter is much more likely to attract
new
contributors.
