Indiegogo Greek Bailout campaign

  Interesting idea... I think it's great that someone is doing this, but with all due respect - 1.6bn € via crowdfunding??? Canonical tried to get 32m back in 2013 for the Ubuntu Edge smartphone. Despite a promising start (> 1m in 5hrs), they failed to get more than 12.8m[1]. 1.6bn / 12.8m = 125 Who is going to fund that?

    At first I thought it was some kind of joke, but I really doubt that they actually think that they'd be able to make it, unless the ECB gets an Indiegogo account =)
