The 2M staffing budget in 2017 is for ten people, not eight. Was not clear enough in the blog post initially, apologies.

Actually it is for 8. Two of the people are being paid by another company. At least that's what I understood.

It is ten (I made the budget), but I apologize for not making that more clear in the blog post.

We have eight employees now, and have budgeted for ten in 2017.

OK, thanks for the clarification. You guys are doing a really awesome thing but this post makes me worry about your longevity. Does Let's Encrypt have plans for other sources of revenue? Like selling support services?
