Yes, since the freelancer thread fills this need, I think it would be more interesting to have in a "I wish someone would build this" thread, where a specific need is articulated. The poster could add a bounty or something to it.

I second this idea of "I wish someone would build this". The freelancer thread is more generic. I sometimes need specific things like "Install wordpress on AWS EC2 with nginx" etc type of project. This way, I only hear from the freelancers (hopefully) who have done this before.
