I suggest a bounty thread where users pledge for what they want and how much they're willing to pay to get it.
A request can be for anything to do with Maemo from bug hunts to reverse engineering.

Template to Request Bounty:
Code:
  Bounty:   	Amount you are willing to pay
  Requirements: What are the requirements to claim the bounty?
  Type:     	What type of request is it? Bugs/Memory Leaks/Replacement/Reverse Engineer/Porting/Translations/Upstream/Other
  File/Package: What is the file/package in question to look at?
  Location/URL: Where can the bounty hunter find the package/file?
  Additional Details: Is there any details which could help the bounty hunter?
Example:
Code:
  Bounty:   	$10USD
  Requirements: Provide source code, working deb file
  Type:     	Reverse Engineering
  File:     	libicd_log.so
  Size:     	4KB
  Location/URL: http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/nokia-binaries/********************************/nokia-binaries/i/icd2/libicd2_0.87%2bfremantle9%2b0m5_i386.deb
  Additional Details: http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/icd2/icd__log_8c.html
	Size of libicd_log.so is 4KB
After a request has been made, the first post of this thread can be updated with the request.
Or alternatively a Wiki can be set up.

Template of Requested Bounty:
Code:
  Bounty:   	Total amount users are willing to pay
  Users Requesting: Who is throwing in money?          
  Requirements: 	What are the requirements to claim the bounty?
  Claimed:			Has the bounty been claimed?
  Bounty Hunters:	Are there any bounty hunters working on it?
  Type:     	What type of request is it? Bugs/Memory Leaks/Replacement/Reverse Engineer/Porting/Other
  File/Package: What is the file/package in question to look at?
  Location/URL: Where can the bounty hunter find the package/file?
  Additional Details: Is there any details which could help the bounty hunter?
Let me know if you think this is a good idea/could this be improved.
If it is a good idea I'll change the title of this thread.

TL;DR:
Bounty thread. Good Idea?
If yes, Bounty list be updated in first post of thread or Wiki?
Have a Request? Use template.
