The funding didn't cause this. It's the foundation handling money for organizations and them not paying on time. This caused a cashflow problem. Cashflow isn't the same as being profitable, though it is a problem.
Phoronix is NOT a reliable news source!

- pseudalopex 10y agoIt wasn't "their funding". The GNOME Foundation handled payroll for an internship program sponsored by the participating organizations. Net expenses on OPW for 2013 were about $25,000[1], which included paying several people to hack on GNOME.
