I do think we **should** mention employment as one of the options (contracting and sponsoring individuals as well) - becaue it's the fact and even welcome that many contributors, committers, PMC members are employees. This is a good thing - for example one that allows Airflow to thrive (amongst other things). But I think we should just be explicit about boundaries of the influence - this is what I wanted to clarify how much influence companies might have (see my "aligining incentives" proposal). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
