Re: [glob2-devel] doubling all bids to gain a full time programmer

Hi

if not we should give the users the opportunity to get on a news letter (opt 
in).

What does that mean? Who will receive it then?

Hm. Now trying to explain my point it gets complicated.
I wanted to present the fields that Bradley did mostly on his own but that 
would ignore the work done by others in these areas (debugging, patches, ...).
If I try to list all things he has touched I will surely miss things and 
accidently add others missrepresenting that others might have put more work on 
that.
Complicated.

> Bradley has done a lot.
> People want to know what/who they spend their money on.

Still a missrepresentation might frustrate others that also did a lot.

I only wanted to tell that he's not like this "company/team" that once offered 
to work for glob2 if we rebrand it under their logo without them having 
anything to proove they are worth a penny.

The one like the other is so little money that i would really be frustrated if 
we couldn't raise it. I chose that line and will not edit it now although you 
might be right.

> I haven't found any statements on "how to pay" on cofundus.

The users have to arrange the transactions themselves.
This bares an additional risk for Bradley but protects the doners if the 
bidding was made up (I vote to pay Bradley (whispering: who's my second 
identity)).
