Thanks for a bit of added clarity. I do understand it is more than an app store model, good luck with making open source projects more sustainable.
I actually do wonder if some of your revenue should go on bug bounties too, rather than project income only (even though I know some of that will probably be put towards bug bounties), but regardless I hope it changes the ecosystem for the better.
The main part of the Elementary OS app store analogy was that it is all free software, and their intention was to encourage people to pay for it regardless, which is the only crossover with you - I think the guys there would actually be interested in this model too.
