[GCompris-devel] Why not do funding for gcompris unified graphics like krita did on a month to month basis ?

Hi all,
I saw the flexible funding that Bruno did and also have seen the
results but as was seen was much below the scale. One of the things on
my mind is why can't gcompris apply or try having similar to krita.
While they did whiz-bang with their latest on kickstarter see
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/krita/krita-free-paint-app-lets-make-it-faster-than-phot
 they also lead year around flexible funding goals with a feature or
two and making 2-3 monthly releases. It has a bit of micro-management
involved but as both (the fund-raiser and their backers) were happy I
don't see any issues in gcompris following the same route. If there
are modest goals and defined goal posts than there is possibility of
having success as well.

I don't remember whether this was in 2014 or 2013 but do remember
krita using that strategy as well and being winner at that.

Hope to see more activities getting unified graphics.
