Amount over 500$ would go in "www.escrow.com", a bit like this:
http://www.codeweavers.com/site/compatibility/browse/name?app_id=385;pledge=1


If it works for Wine, CodeWeavers and many SourceForge projects,
it could work for other OSS projects too.

If explicit pledges are a no go like Dilbert PHB would say, 
[http://www.google.com/dilbert.html]
we could have a list of "available kde volunteers" that could be contacted 
privately...
to do some work on KDE.

Just my 2 cents.

Fred.
