Put me down for a minumum of 100 USD (and like Larry, I'm good for more if it
is necessary to get the project off the ground).

I know some people say you should be committed Larry, but that's not what
we're talking about... Tim just wants volunteers for a committee, of course

I wouldn't want to be on the committee either, nor do I feel the need to be
committed...

Per Larry's later note - I'd definitely go for giving them 50, but if they
want to pay the cost, I definitely agree, use Larry's "incremental cost" idea.
