Yeah, and the PSF is worried that the possible cancellation of PyCon could send the whole foundation broke.

The fact that there's a bunch of critical infra run on a precarious volunteer shoestring is not a good thing.

Maybe look in your node_modules folder sometime, eh? Or the Linux kernel. The whole world runs their critical infrastructure on volunteer work.

You haven't bothered looking at the contributers to Linux since 1997, I take it.
