Also, this is exactly my point about being disrespectful and hurting the community. You are devaluating the opinions of volunteers in the community because you get to spend your paid time on it. I still contribute multiple hours each week to the project either through reviewing patches, helping evaluate bug reports or working with my SoC student. Apparently, this is of no value to you and anyone in that role should just leave. If that were the case, anyone in the project for more than two years shouldn't be allowed to speak up, because we've all had to cut back our commit levels at some points.
