- midoridensha 4y agoI figured that was obvious and I didn't need to detail the relationship. Obviously, Gnome isn't paying anyone; they're funded and paid (through dev salaries) by RH and friends, who exercise a lot of control over the project's direction. Of course the distro maintainers are going to ship Gnome, because it's theirs.
