Dunc-Tank and “living expenses”
During the dunc-tank flamewars, we were told that the money paid to the release managers would cover “living expenses”, but would not be real wages, and probably less than the standard wages for this kind of work.
You’ll be pleased to learn that a release manager needs $6000 USD to cover for living expenses for a month.
Now I’m just asking myself why I paid less attention to friends and family while working on Debian, just like Joey. Was it worth it ? I’m no longer sure.
