Yes, I am willing to organise a fundraiser to help finance ironing out LiveCode bugs.

I am, however, not sure how to go about that;

1. Set up a 'thing' on Indiegogo (because this is not a fund-raiser to have a set lower limit)?

2. Link it to a dedicated bank account belonging to LiveCode?

3. Perform some sort of triage to rank LC bugs?

4. Have a way to award badges for people who donate to squash particular bugs?

I believe that this is quite a useful model: https://home.unicode.org/adopt-a-character/

If this would work I am more than willing to "put my time where my mouth is" and run this.

The fundraiser idea has been discussed before in regard to desired new feature requests but it could easily be done for bugs as well. It only needs someone to organize it. Are you willing?

Not entirely.


I can put for what I regard as a positive suggestion. Whether it is doable
and makes any business sense is a big question.


Stop all continuing development for a fixed period of time (6 months, say)
and attempt to sort out as many of the outstanding bugs as possible.


Have a fundraiser where individuals could sponsor specific bugs and
features they really wanted seeing to.


Even "Awful Richmond" would stump up some money for that.
