[Qgis-psc] Draft: funding for bugfixing

[Andreas Neumann]

ah - ok. Different story.

Here is what we spent on bug fixing on the latest releases:

   - 2.14: 16 k
   - 2.16: 20 k
   - 2.18: 22.5 k
   - 3.0: 54 k


But again - you all know that there are hundreds, if not thousands of open
issues. Many of them quite severe ....

But if you add a "target" one would have to have a "tracker" on how the
donations develop in relation to the target somewhere on QGIS.ORG website
(or better in the QGIS splash screen ;-) )
