Bounty troubles

[Philip Van Hoof <pvanhoof gnome org>]

A few years ago I solved this bounty and did receive a cheque (check
comment 19).

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127557

After receiving the cheque, I went to my bank and tried to claim the
money itself. They told me the date on the cheque was written wrong (it
was a cheque in the future, which wasn't possible) and explained me that
if I would wait until that date happens, I can then claim it.

It had the year number increased by one so I simply waited for a year. 

A year later (last year), I again tried to claim the cheque, they tried
it and a few days later they basically explained me that the bank
account where the money should be transferred from got closed. I even
had to pay 20 euros administrative costs and of course didn't get the
money itself.

:-(

Anyway. I'm planning to stop caring about it if the foundation spends
the same amount of money into a new bounty that would improve Camel. I
remember it was a $300 or $350 one.
