I agree. As far as I see it the board should just control the books and thats about it.
Basically there would be two types of bounties:
1) "Directed" bounties: If someone donates money towards the completion
of a purpose, the money must be made available for that purpose.
2) "General Funds" bounties: These are bounties created from the budget
above. The way I propose this should work is as follows: Anyone with
commit access can "propose" a bounty. The board would be responsible for
reviewing the bounty, and if it looks good to them ( possibly amending
it some ), they would submit it to the body of commiters for approval.
Obviously the board would be responsible for reigning in the bounties
from going over budget.
Thats roughly the idea though you have put it in to much better words then I could have.
I would like to be involved in the by-law development
process, or at
least be able to review them and give some feedback. I would be willing
to serve on the board, if I'm wanted.
Join the foundation list and we can move forward with a real plan this time.
Thanks
Steven
