Question: Sponsor a Feature #114

Closed derycck closed 1 year ago

derycck commented 1 year ago

Dear Alexander. I know that in opensource volunteer projects, implementation priorities follow a natural rhythm depending on each developer's individual availability and passion. But among a myriad of implementation requests, it is likely that for some of them, users would be willing to sponsor financially to prioritize their implementation. I propose this idea because as I am a user, I know 2 dozen others who would be willing to pay collectively to see a certain feature implemented in Scantailor Universal. What are your thoughts on this?

Hello, I think ST Advanced had some donate option and it didn't help it. Universal is a much less popular project. Accepting donations in a support of the certain features implementation is a risky thing. Some features I might don't want to implement... Some features might be not feasible to implement bcs it's too hard due to software architecture... And I don't think funding will inspire me much anyway. DevOps / Code / Docs / Translation contribution would be more welcome.
