This is an example how the Bounty Issue template could look like...

I think this is a great example.
I would also add a label of Small to allow better search.
Is this intended to be managed here or in the relevant repo?

[wipfli]

Let's manage Bounties in one place here in the maplibre/maplibre repo. If we find that it is unpractical, we can always move it to GL JS, Native, etc...

Sorry, this is not the right place for this discussion, I'll move my comments to #125
