Hi,
Why not the other way around? Having from the very beginning a clear goal with a speculative budget, companies would have visibilitty
about the end goal of their donations. Otherwise is a bit a leap of faith.
+1. That's why I never donate to charity. I can't see or control what my money
is going to be used for.

No because we have to see how much money we get first. ;) Without knowing
how much we will get then you can probably assume it will go
towards core dev sprint sponsorships like the page states. After that
probably the PM role we have been talking about on the steering
council to help sunset Python 2, then a PM-like role to help with GitHub
issue migration. That's as far as the steering council has
discussed things with the PSF in terms of short-term, concrete asks for
money and staffing.
After that it's my personal speculation, but I would hope something like
the Django fellowship program. If we could get enough money
to fund like 4 people to work on Python full-time it would be amazing and
help us stay on top of things like pull requests.
But all of this depends on companies actually giving money in the proper
amounts in order to be able to do anything like this. I've
been told by companies they have been wanting to donate money for ages but
wanted to make sure it was helping Python's development.
Well, this is their chance to prove they actually meant it. ;)
