 We're confident that the policy requirements that we currently have are the 
right ones, but we've been looking for practical ways to be more proactive 
about addressing those sorts of problems -- steps that are within our means and 
the means of distribution maintainers like you. And we've come up with a new 
program that we think will do a good job of striking that balance.
 
-We're calling it the GNU Bucks program. If you're familiar with the rewards 
that Donald Knuth gives out for finding errors in his texts, this works 
similarly. We will ask people to send complete, *detailed* bug reports to the 
appropriate distros, and copy us. If the bug report leads to non-free software 
being removed, the submitter will receive a "GNU Buck" certificate, in the 
amount of Pi, signed by Free Software Foundation president and "Chief 
Gnuisance" Richard Stallman, along with credit on a web page if they like.

will receive a "GNU Buck" in the amount of Pi, signed by Free Software 
Foundation president and "Chief Gnuisance" Richard Stallman, and the option of 
public recognition.
 
 When that happens, we'll also spread word to other endorsed distros, to make 
sure they can address the issue too. That way, we'll get as much benefit from 
this work as possible.
