Sorry, that was just my impression from previous posts. I guess I have that wrong. Maybe I am confusing the reluctance to take donations at the moment with commercial sponsorship. Thanks for correcting me.

Couple of questions, then....

What is the average current time commitment per week, i.e. man hours that is currently volunteered by the core developers?

What would that need to increase to, to significantly reduce release times (which I think was the overall goal)?

What would the *market rate* be for the skills required? Just to give a rough figure to work with and shouldn't be related to any particular person's current day job.

Thanks in advance,

Ian.
