So… don’t do the work? Or sell commercial licenses?
I never understood why developers do free work and then complain when they aren’t compensated or are overburdened. Nobody is going to throw money and resources at you out of good will. You have to ask for it. And by ask for it I mean demand it. |

- The library is their baby and it’s hard to not get attached and feel personally responsible.
- There are a lot of people who seem to think they have a right to be demanding of open source volunteers.
- A lot of people don’t know how to ask for and get help.
- They don’t know how to leverage the help that is offered. (Or simply the help offered isn’t the right kind)
- Delegation is hard. Letting go is hard.
