@uecker @kernellogger @klausman Your post makes impression that paying main contributor somehow causes that contributor to do something else, than would be good for community? That's not the case. Every contributor pulls the project where they want. And they can. Big corpo usually does not stop them. Contributors who are paid as part of their job, pull towards whatever they need to because for example manager told them. Contributors who are hobbyists, with whom I deal a lot, pull to solve their hobbyist needs. No problem here... No one (or not enough) was pulling ISDN or other drivers, so these are going away. And this is what entire post is about. Somehow people expect someone will do the work for free (this pulling of the project) for them. Many people do work for free, because of their choice/needs, but EXPECTING someone to work for free is unacceptable.
