That's pretty interesting as a model.
Is voting the right way to influence developer choices though, or is a more market based solution the right approach (like using subscription fees and thus loss of fees = feedback that the decisions are wrong).
- pjc50 11y agoI was thinking of both, really: pay for software, get a vote in its future. Possibly split into an upfront + ongoing membership payment, as software needs long-term maintenance. People who haven't paid wouldn't get a vote. The intent is to fill precisely those areas where the current software market has failed, so we know that a pure market solution is not going to deliver what a particular set of users want.
