AmiZilla Booty Splits Four Ways

[nBit7]

I think the person who ports it to any OS first should get 50% of the bounty and then the remainer will be split 3 ways..

I would suggest even more;  80-90%.
Once it is ported to any one of these Amiga like OS's it should be comparatively easy to port to another should it not?

Or maybe just forget the whole damn thing and mark it as mission:impossible? Seems it doesnt really matter if the bounty is 2500, 10.000 or 50.000 dollars, it will never get done.

There most defiantly would be a bounty price that would see this project complete.  The problem is that no one can seriously take up the task as it is not a bounty assign to one person or group.  There is too much risk that someone would beat you.  If pay off on completion was assured and the money was likely to more than cover costs (at reasonable programmer wages) then I am sure a professional group would successfully take it on.

I wouldn't worry about competition- just worry that someone's actually doing something! There's only Andrea and the AmiZilla team who have any chance of doing something. AmiZilla don't have anything to do with OS4 port, and I don't think Andrea is interested in OS3 port.

Well then I guess this is a really good move then.  As these developers were never in a position to claim the booty (because they were only interested in one port) now can access part of it.  This could be just the extra motivation they need to complete their port.
