History of Bitweaver Bounty
!Bounties available for Bitweaver development
If you want a new Bitweaver feature but don't have the time or expertise to do it yourself, consider offering a __Bounty__ for the work. Even if the bounty you offer by itself is not enough to moltivate someone to do the work, once you create the bounty, others may add to it making it an attractive project for someone.
Bounties are used by other successful open source projects. See: [http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+bounty|Asterisk Bounty] as an example.

!!If you want to work on a feature request
When you want to work on a feature request, first contact the maintainer. The maintainer will explain to you if there's already work going on somewhere and what happens if several people claim the bounty - who will win and under what conditions. This is really up to the maintainer to decide, usually together with the group of people that have added to the original bounty.
