I appreciate your ideas and I'm happy about everybody working on this. All I wanted to say is that I prefer community focused prices which are a nice "thank you" over expensive prices. Kind of creating a "yay - I helped PHP and they gave me this nice elephpant"(*) emotion :-) johannes (*) Damien recently told me a story about bringing regularly packages full of elephpants to th e post office, one day the post clerk did him a favor as he forgot his wallet or something, Damien thanked him by giving him an elephpant, the post clerk didn't really know what to do with it but the next time Damien came to the post office the clerk expected him happily and told him about his son's reaction: son: "you've got an elephpant? where did you get that from?" clerk: "well, some dude gave it me at the post office" s: "you've got some elphpant! that's so cool! had that dude been Damien Seguy?" c: "yes" s: "that's so cool, my dad knows Damien" as the son was a happy PHP user .... the point is: That's the kind of emotion I'd like to have from the prices - I fear that not winning a laptop creates an emotion like "damn, why did i just get the elephpant and not that laptop." Hope that clarifies my point of view!
