Setting up and running a site, scavenging all the forums to find ideas, addressing the needs of most of the WebOS users, launching a proposal for a bounty and setting the rules, 'selling' that and get the bounty money in e.g. A Paypal account, screening a credible and willing developer, keeping an eye whether development goes according to the rules and finally accepting the end product. Sounds like a lot of work. Any volunteers for 2013?
Android does that all the time in XDA. People donate to get apps made and many apps are developed for free and then they accept donations. I keep reading articles and postings here saying the users and dev community far exceed other OS dev communities, so there shouldn't be a problem to get this going, get a bunch of dev teams like Cyanogen team(and the tons of other custom ROM devs), bounty for WebOS to Android hardware, and donating to devs to develop requested apps.
