May we now debate the dollar >amount? Some have reacted with horror to this idea but it seems pragmatic to me. How about one vote for every $250 donated? A donor of $750 would have three votes. Design a ballot with suggested projects, and vote on your favorite 10 in order of preference. The top vote getters become funded. Obviously, the more you donate the more you can influence the vote, but that's as it should be. It's not a political democracy. -- Browser war over, Mozilla now free.
