I agree with your idea. I'm working in Open Source. How much money can you send me please?
The above statement of course raises more questions than answers;
A) you believe Open Source should be funded. Are you willing to be a funder?
B) do you believe me when I say I write Open Source? (You shouldn't, I don't)
C) since you won't be managing this project, can I assume you'll just hope the feature you want will materialze at some point? In the form you are hoping for?
D) will you fund "any" Open Source, or only the OSS you are using? Or want changed?
