ESR says Linux embodies the Bazar model. As far as I know it free. But than again maybe I misunderstodd this bit too. Bazar talks about contributing software. Note I asked "deos something like that exist or maybe it is time to write something new". But I guess this means I want someone else to do all the work. Or maybe you misunderstood me.
