Hm. I think we're waiting for more details ;)

But in general, kudos to the scheme as a whole. It is a fantastic  
idea to put actual customer funding into the freely available  
software stack which hasn't seen much of that in its history. Most  
funding has always gone to specific customer projects where  good  
ideas or software tend to be locked up, out of reach of the core  
software package.
