Hi Nate, I think the post you refer to and Darryl's both work on the use case of needing to pay to publish something, not to get it. Darryl had suggested his work could be used for that case . See more on Daryl's work at http://plonegetpaid.com/updates/archive/2008/09/10/more-on-getpaid-credits-products
You can also search the mailing list as there are a number of references to doing this/how to do it. But Darryl is correct, nothing in the code base yet. So many people have talked about it, I am surprised no one besides Darryl has offered some concrete insight into doing it! Nate - any chance you have a pool of artists who would be interested in the work? Seems like something that would be great to jointly fund across multiple beneficiaries, a la social sourcing.
