I see absolutely nothing wrong with $50-100 bounties.

I have personally, on many occasions, seen somebody request a feature which I
think is neat/interesting/whatever.  I say "I think that's great, and I can
write that."  I do it *for free*, because *I* like the idea.  If somebody is
willing to pay me (hey, $50 will buy a pretty decent dinner for 2) for
something I enjoyed doing - even better.

Surely you don't need to be reminded that Asterisk is an open source project?
