A central place to collect ideas is a good idea (I already have my own
list [1] that I'll merge to the cryptpad) as a broader audience can see
what is of interest and can express their own needs and desires. It stands
to reason if more structure is needed long term but we are not their yet
anyway.

Regarding your initial posting, having bounties would be nice too. Judging
by my (limited) past experience, it is difficult to handle them well
(speaking from on origanizational point of view and from putting a
price-tag on things (if we talk about paid-for work)). That being said,
I think having some means to prioritize “pet-projects” is certainly of
value and at the same time having topics available that might poke the
interest of newcomers (especially along the lines of mentoring new
contributors).


Regards Josef
