An open MySQL bug receives a real Birthday cake
I think gittip is great, and I understand this is the opposite of their philosophy, but I want a well-used bounty program for these things.<p>I mentioned some Django bugs that are huge for us that were finally fixed in 1.6 in another thread [1]. I'd have personally pledged a couple hundred dollars to have them fixed, and probably could have gotten considerably more pledged from my company. Does this tool/platform exist and I just don't know about it?<p>[1] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5958281" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5958281</a><p>[Edit]<p>Thanks for the replies. Pledgie and bountysource look interesting and I suppose really close to what I was imagining, in spirit. Fundamentally, I'd like to see something well-executed help formalize the process behind what motivated Andrew's awesome Django migrations kickstarter [2]. I really like the way that came together because it had the buy-in of the team, and there-by inspired confidence in potential backers.<p>[2] <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andrewgodwin/schema-migrations-for-django" rel="nofollow">http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andrewgodwin/schema-migr...</a>
