I think that's completely the wrong offer. As you just said, they have way too much money.
What they need is some solid UI people to come take a look, and a few backend people wouldn't hurt either. They probably have something right now, they're just terrified of launching. What they need is a safe group to beta-test with who can help clean up some of the rough edges.

When you're trying to stave off depression, handing out depressants does not help, even if they are really tasty depressants. That said, if they don't want the money I'll bake a cake instead. Your serious advice is, of course, perfectly fine, if serious advice is what the project actually needs. If, however, what the project needs is fewer expectations and more whimsy, I offer my services. I am a very poor substitute for _why, but open source projects must make do with what they can get.
