bounties

  Has anyone considered a bounty system for R?
(i.e., some kind of system whereby users could put
up money to request particular improvements/bits of
R code.  These bits of R code need not be incorporated
into base R unless they're deemed sufficiently useful,
but they could go (e.g.) on the Wiki)

I've wondered about this sort of thing too.  Are there any successful
models like this for other program languages/systems?
