How do you think that we can best organize and advertise ongoing projects? =
What implementation are you envisioning?

___

As a particular note, I would add that if a reward system dried up, then in=
terest in helping a project can basically only dry up to the point at where=
 we currently are. In a sense, we are at our lowest, which has the advantag=
e that the inly direction from here is up (or, at least, not down). We have=
 a great opportunity to innovate and we should not fear worst-case scenario=
s because we are almost there already in many ways. Moreover, for this spec=
ific concern, developing investment in the outcome of a project by initiall=
y rewarding participation monetarily may actually motivate a sustained inte=
rest in its progress regardless of the continuation of that monetary reward=
. But I do see the advantages in making small "thank you"-note-like gifts a=
nd larger-scale, less guaranteed, competitive reward systems (like a Nobel =
Prize).
