Indeed. I've had about six emails just this week from private companies 
using Bugzilla, wanting to be on the installation list. They normally 
have a word of praise or two to go along with it.

If we need cash for something, let's have a PayPal (or similar) account, 
plug it on the website, and also start responding to those requests with 
a polite pointer at the URL.

But, as Myk says, what do we need cash for? Are we trying to do a Perl 
and hire a developer?
