Can't you work for a stake ? I understand that there is a 5% =200 stakes reserved for ecosystem development. It is worth 200.000 $ at least.

We can - in fact we are. But externals especially companies won't. Since the support that we've seen so far has been underwhelming we will have no choice but to "outsource" some things to contractors.

You could set a bounty for the required works. I have some doubts on your ability to pick contractors. Typical example: interim logo selection. It is not uncommon to pick a wrong person for a job though. I do management and most of the time it is a very time consuming process to choose a right person for a job. That's why a bounty system is the best. It allows different candidates to sort themselves out for a the job and the winner is often the best fit candidate.

After official Launch it should be easier to attract more people to work with NEM, so i prefer bounties too.

With the launch getting pushed back to October-ish, that puts development in a bind does it not?

Yes, it may be a bind there. We need to push on with parallel developments that are complementary to the base ecosystem. Not develop it after launch. Nxt had that luxury but with many competition setting in, NEM does not have this luxury of time.

It has to be some "centralized" movement totally distinct from what NEM as an ecosystem is doing. Something like what Nxt eco players are doing, some with profit intentions, some with ecosystem building intentions, etc. But we will need to do it in compressed time. That is the difference.
