Title: A new forum section for Bounties?
Post by: MichaelVParent on July 25, 2015, 10:12:51 PM
Hi everyone,

As part of my mission to get classic Game development more popular than it's been for decades, I'd like to start setting up bounties (financial compensation for completion of stuff that will be useful for Classic Amiga/Amos community)

Is it worth considering having a forum section dedicated to bounties, so all potential developers can easily go see what people are requesting and what the bounties have risen to etc. ?

What I'm thinking is two sections..

1) one for "proposed or potential bounties".. This would be where someone explains what they think they'd like, but there's lots of room for discussion, to clear up false assumptions, technical considerations, and hone in on what would truly be feasible and useful.

2) The actual official bounties, that clearly describe the desired "deliverable" and set up a link for bounties. I found one site that looks good for handling software development mounties here: https://www.bountysource.com/

To get things rolling I'll be presenting some potential bounties for discussion very shortly. I'm interested to see how this goes.

cheer.

May I cross-post the bounty descriptions to AmigaForum.de with links to the original post?  AmigaForum has a bounty section already.

That sounds great.. once the bounties are well thought out, discussed among ourselves here, then made official.

Cheers.

Correction:  It's not on AmigaForum.de but its sister forum:  AmigaCoding.de .  Sorry about the mixup.
