Code Bounties
Explanation
A code bounty is a certain financial stimulant to encourage someone to put his or her effort into a project. A code bounty in the DragonFlyBSD project needs to adhere to a set of rules defined hereunder, though these are only preliminary and subject to change. One could for example imagine developers accepting sponsorship on a wholly different basis, or non-financial rewards for completing a bounty project, like free hardware (we love that!).
Rules
Bounty Projects are open to anyone that has a reasonable capability of completing the project. Typically it's on first to ask basis, but the sponsor of the bounty may choose differently.
If the developer can not complete the project by the given time period, the bounty agreement is void and no money will be issued for work done. DragonFly developers may extend the time period if it's reasonable and prudent to do so. Upon voiding the agreement, someone may reissue the project again to another developer.
Payment for a project shall be issued in no less then 72 hours after the DragonFly developers has had ten business days to determine if the code is stable and usefulness, no major issues are left unresolved and able for being merged into the project. Payment shall be in either ?Paypal (preferred), some money sending company or a bank account transfer.
Upon recieving payment, the project developer shall issue (within 24 hours) a message in the WIKI and to DragonFly development ML that they have recieved payment.
All code submitted shall be of the same license as DragonFly. Any questions on the licensing issues should directed to the DragonFly Team.
