The Elementary project claim to have had a lot of success with

Earlier in this thread, they suggested that their bounties are mostly
going out to regular Elementary developers who would have worked on
something else for Elementary anyway, instead of incentivizing
contributions from outsiders.


Daniel Foré seems to think that it has helped them increase the number
of contributors, at least according to one post on Google+.
