My personal belief is that being jealous is wrong.
If you, Martin Schulze, were given financial compensation to work full
time on key Debian taks, and you'd enjoy it, I'd be very happy for
you.
And you know what? I'm convinced you'd continue to do a great work within
the project. Of course, I don't know you. But I believe it. And I believe
it would be a benefit for the project and for our users. It is all that matters.
