I was slightly surprised seeing the state of their website before posting, having looked a few months ago. Anyway, the question was more about that kind of developer funding - people posting bounties against specific bugs / feature requests. I'm just wondering how much integration - pointing people at a global list, direct links in issue queues, etc. can be done without falling foul of ASF policies. Not that it's a model we'd necessarily want to encourage anyway. Doesn't look like Bountysource has been used much by Apache projects, although a few linked to Cassandra by the look of it.
