Since they don't do that (it's right there in the announcement, which no one in this thread seems to have bothered to read) that whole point is moot:

Then be satisfied that your project is a good enough idea that someone else is willing to put up money to rewrite it using a safe language.

But if you're not the one doing the rewrite, why would google pay you? And if you would be capable of such a rewrite, may be they would pay you to do so.

Wouldn't feel great, but what in the article gave you the idea they're doing that?
