Closed-source projects have been dealing with this forever, by having a mostly-static pool of employees replenished through job listings and interviews. A FLOSS project adopting this model would certainly feel weird, but could work if there were enough willing candidates. The question is, who will take on effectively a job without the monetary reward?

My understanding is that the people working on ladybird are compensated for their full time positions, so I would also expect any future positions to be similar.
