Or try and make github/bitbucket into something like an open source app store. Provide features to allow project creators/developers to build a business model around their own projects. Not all can be commercialized but I am sure some can be - having a support business model.
This could be on lines similar to nginx/varnish etc.
Sourceforge tried sometthing like this, but maybe there were flaws in how they tried to implement it.
You would need something like an SLA created once which can be shared by similar projects and have project leaders/communities (OSS Project leaders/communities) use variations of it which they use to provide support for their customers.
All fee collections/payments etc happen through a github/bitbucket gateway.
