After thinking about it I think what I’d like is the return (in some form) of the pay-to-develop-a-free-module fundraising system that led to the Streams port (and a few other contributions). I never understood why those stopped; it seemed like a win-win for developers and the whole ecosystem. Maybe they were a lot of trouble for @Vortico to administer? In that case, no reason why it couldn’t be a community-driven effort…
Great thread, by the way, @VirtualModular !
