Ricardo, I can agree with you but how do you reward just being there
and doing the dirty job?
For reviews, for example, one could find an arbitrary set of metrics
and
hand out an award with a monetary component at an annual event. I'm
not
speaking of sustainable funding of that work, but of a mechanism to
both
publicize the importance of the work and to add a social component to
recognizing it.
I suppose one could tie the concept of volunteering activity with a
voucher system,
which could then be pooled/collected with to a Guix theme for funding.
For example, it could well be that patch reviewers have a desire to
valorise a specific activity.
Getting a specific volume of patches signed off could reach 70% of the
threshold.
The remaining 30% is made up from the 'circles' concerning the languages
Foo and Bar.
... perhaps there are some anarcho-syndicalists out there who can
recommend something more nuanced.
