NMDF holds a little less than $200 2.5BTC (BTC+NMC)

It won't bring us very far with the rebase... any other suggestions for a small bounty (~0.5btc)?

These are very nice ideas, thanks for compiling them!

Can you clarify what you mean with that? I presume that everything available with "namecoind" on the command-line can be done via JSON-RPC, too. Or is this not yet the case?

I was referring to the concerns raised on yanking the GUI client, apparently some API calls would need to be added to the RPC API for a functional client. I assumed that the CLI exposed those calls but I could be wrong.

Ah ok. AFAIK, the CLI exposes precisely the JSON-RPC calls, but this is just from my own experience using both. It may well be that for the UI to be separate, some additional internals are necessary (at least a fix for the infamous "know fees beforehand when using CLI" thing, for instance).
