I like this idea, Valentin.  I've offered up $100 to support ly2musicxml 
and I'd probably put up more if it came down to it.  A list something 
like the one at this site might be appropriate:

http://musopen.com/bid/

If there were a few well-chosen feature requests that already have 
bounties, then it might help to have a place where people can quickly 
see what they are and how much money has already been promised.  Shoot, 
I might even pitch in to help one of the other ones just to help *some* 
feature request get implemented by bounty, even if it's not the one I'm 
most enthusiastic about.
