How to create a Z-Bounty
Z-Bounties are used to enhance existing solutions, and/or create new solutions. Creating a Z-Bounty is a 2 steps process, as further detailed below.
Step 1: Select a topic
There are quite some items waiting completion, or waiting for some enhancements, especially in the Z-Files and the Z-Wiki. Start looking around for them, using approaches like:
- investigate the content of the Z-Factory Roadmap and/or the Z-Wiki Roadmap.
- using the search feature, e.g. to search for strings such as enhancements.
If there is anything that you really want, and you really cannot (or do not want to) wait for it, consider submitting an appropriate Z-Bounty, as further detailed below.
Another possibility is that you have requirements or requests that are even not mentioned anywhere (yet ...) within Dr.Chgman.com. It is well possible that your requirement / request has been addressed already somehow via a specific customization or approach. In that case some day the resolution might appear as some type of Z-Wiki publication or as a Z-Issue (with its related Z-Clues and Z-Files). To ensure your requirement / request gets addressed some day, or you really cannot (or do not want to) wait for it, consider submitting an appropriate Z-Bounty, as further detailed below.
Step 2: Submit a Z-Bounty
Submitting a Z-Bounty is actually a simple webform to be completed, which allows for entering details such as:
-
Is it an enhancement to an existing item or is it a new requirement?
-
Details about:
-
Who you are (including contact information).
-
What you want to place a Z-Bounty for (brief description, optionally including an URL).
-
How much you're willing to offer (pay) for it (don't worry, payment plans are part of the Z-Bounty negociation).
-
How long your offer for a Z-bounty will remain valid (expiration date).
-
