As I anticipated, the initial deadline for the bonus was not met by the programmers. So they lost $2000 each and the bonus will continue to deplete at $2000/week each until full completion or until there is no bonus left. However, they've advised me they're sending the result of their work so far, and it includes "major" developments. I expect to receive the latest software within 24hrs for testing. I'll give another update after testing.
