I saw this some time ago and wasn't really sure how to feel about it. On one hand it's good to make corporations compensate maintainers, but I also don't want to be forced to ask for a fee because my project uses another project that uses this.

I'm shockingly okay with this and I didn't think I would be.

I feel like a small investment by users for support and continuing development in the broader scope of things is significantly better than developers searching for VC capital and other ways to fund their projects. That being said I don't believe it's going to work. But I would be interested in seeing data on any pilot programs they run.
