Are there any core developers who have Patreon accounts for monthly donations? Examples from more Linux-y projects: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/duplicates/5omtvg/patreons_to_support_open_source_projects_please/ I think this is the next frontier for Python maintenance; we need full-time core maintainers, no third parties are funding any such developers, and the PSF doesn't seem interested in pursuing that. --amk _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
