That's one of the reasons why you're part of KDE e.V. To make sure the money is spent correctly :) > Not having this kind of money-driven-development is a great strength of > community-driven open source projects. That's not going away. We already have proof of it. There has always been people doing KDE paid development and it has never been a huge issue from my almost 20 years of memory collaborating with the project. > We have a list of possible > providers for such requests already (disclosure: I work for a company on > that list). I disagree, https://ev.kde.org/consultants/ is for "i want to implement X, how much it will cost? 20K€? Fine here you have, now do it for me" not for "i have 100€ a year, please let me pitch in with more people so we can hire a developer to work full time on improving Qt for KDE needs".
