While I agree with the fact that tis might be appealing, I feel 
like the ebst is to let the bounties be provided by a commercial, 
external and rather neutral actor such as Facebook. I mean, they 
tend to bounty those things that they need and this is something 
that everybody understand.

OTOH, mixing community and money does not always result in good 
things. People in the community they already contribute with 
their work and I fear the effect that a commercial approach would 
have on this.

Maybe we could vote some "bug of the week" every monday (or 
sunday), then forward it to Facebook with a recommendation for 
bountying it. This will create enough buzz and motivation for it, 
but also allow the community spirit to go on.
