Sorry for the delay. Many people have submitted very good bids (some privately). I've been procrastinating because I'm not sure how to choose among the candidates. It requires a lot of thought.
I fixed some of the most serious problems in SMF, so I'm not in as big of a hurry as when I started this topic.
And do NOT leave MySQL. There's a reason why its the MOST SECURE DB in the *Nix world.
LOL
Why not run a poll where each candidate has a bitcoin address and the most coins sent to one of them is the winner
