Agreed. A project maintainer's job is to accept comments and improvements from the community. It is completely irrelevant if someone is getting paid for their contributions, as long as the quality of their submissions are up to snuff.
If you think that people contributing to your project should not be compensated (which is a reasonable thing to think IMO), the burden is on you to make sure they are not, and it is not the responsibility of a third party to make sure that they are not getting paid.
- maxerickson 12y agoIt's a little bit interesting that your phrasing, in a defense of the activity, implies that it creates a burden.
- bweitzman 12y agoBeing a project maintainer is already a burden. It can be a rewarding burden, but it's a burden nonetheless.
