I've had an idea for a while now: A website that hosts (links) to doujins and such that people want translated, and has a place for each one where people could say how much they are willing to put toward the translation of it. When you register, you put down an email or something and when enough people commit to it you get an email saying "HOLY DICKS THERE ARE ENOUGH PEOPLE".
Only problem is that I don't know if I want to trust people with my cash, and I'm sure others don't. SaHa and the others do have a "donor project" system though, but those are for large mangas and this would be for smaller ones (since I think a lot more people are willing to pay 3 bucks instead of 30 for a translation). Also people would likely back out/disappear, meaning others would have to pick up the slack.
Still, it would be nice to be able to organize some of the common interests in /d/ into something useful to us.
