You do not need a large team of Erlang developers though, a much smaller team can hold the project afloat, even hire consultants to fix it and leave it for a few years. Also Erlang dev salaries aren't that stellar, just average what you'd pay a Python or a Java person.

it's almost impossible to find Erland dev in my country :D

of course we can have someone learn and then teach to the rest of the team but why bother doing that when you can select another language where it's a lot easier to hire
