The scheme I propose doesn't actually pay per hour. There's no built-in method for time tracking or reconciliation. Rather, hours are used to roughly estimate the amount of time a developer can put in, over the funded period. Essentially, an hours-available estimate would proxy for "full time", "half time", or "a few a week". Perhaps I should revise to give developers precisely that choice, directly.
