Just observing, not complaining ... bit sensitive?
Not sensitive - but realistic - if people don't contribute funds then how do they think that things will get done?
Things are happening but only at the rate that the funds that have been made available can make them happen.
So what ... you are saying now open source projects need funding or they will never happen? Sounds like you might be in the wrong game if open source has become about the money for you ... and besides there is over 6k available in total for this project, which you are probably well aware of, and it doesn't seem to have inspired anybody greatly anyway.
Interested to know what price would you have put on getting this done professionally (not some intern, learner , etc)?
I would like to think that Jeff Garzik being hired (full time) by BitPay to develop Bitcoin has increased his productivity now that he can devote all his time to it.
