I don't think Mark is asking for you or I to fund the exercise. He's asking for the PSF to fund it. I think that Mark's asking price is perhaps a bit optimistic. With the Covid-19 pandemic, lock downs and shutting down of international travel, I expect that PSF conference income will be way down. And income in the previous financial year was not exactly at Facebook levels: Revenue: 3ドル.1 million Expences: 2ドル.6 million Nett income: 520000ドル https://www.python.org/psf/annual-report/2019/ Mark is asking for half of that, justified that this is the going rate for a full-time developer at one of the top tier tech firms. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/IZGFSDJMVO7UWWPD2WEHUPIVN6SATEJB/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
