Is there an etiquitte to posting bounties to the centos community for OSS to be packaged in rpm form for centos?
The generally accepted route is to make a request on the mailing list of an appropriate repository, for example, repoforge (rpmforge):
http://lists.repoforge.org/mailman/listinfo/users
(there are others too)
Such repositories are usually more than willing to accept donations such as hardware and/or bandwidth to assist with hosting, or offers to mirror. Some developers/packagers have individual wish lists on Amazon if you'd like to make a personal donation to express your gratitude and I guess if you are desperate to part with your hard cold cash then they'd be willing to accept that too (although in my personal experience people tend not to do this for financial reward).
