Apropos of everything; I have strong feelings about how sponsorship levels are described.
Too many maintainers are asking for people to 'buy a coffee' or 'show you're a fan'.
This is folksy nonsense that suggests that individuals are those who should be sponsoring open source.

He's absolutely correct here,: cutting benefits to fund arms is anti-growth.
.@Neal_Compass: "I couldn't live on the meagre benefits people are getting. To suggest that we have to cut those.. actually that's where the engine of growth is, that's the people who spend.. how do you get people out spending.. not by cutting benefits of people at the bottom"

WECA's new constitution purports to ensure “that decisions are taken in a manner that is clear, responsible and capable of public scrutiny”.
