I'm pretty sure doing it without permission of the owner is illegal.

Besides, there's a large chance of backlash, since undoubtly many people are going to assume it's an official kickstarter. (And promptly be annoyed by the "slow" progress)

It's illegal to raise money for someone without telling them? It just seems... odd.

Anyway, who's up for asking Toady's permission?

Just think about what a Kickstarter is supposed to accomplish, and you'll see why Toady hasn't started one yet.

It's a law of nature, Toady and the words "today", "now", "soon" and "immediately" don't mix.  It'd be like trying to put a cat in water... or lave.  Whatever the outcome, it won't be pretty.
