I don't think it accurate to say that there are many people working on Koha for free.
Indeed, these stats bear that out: http://www.ohloh.net/p/1541/contributors
interesting stat, that proves the multiple origin of Koha : - me, laurenthdl & toins (BibLibre) - chris C (previously katipo, now catalyst) - owen (NPL) - kados, galen, atz, rych (LibLime) - acli - many others In fact, if i'm not mistaken, the 2nd interesting point in this list is that the only contributors that were not support companies are : owen (and he's a unique case I think), acli, steve tonnesen, and wolfpack444 Apologizes if I'm wrong, but none of them (except owen, of course) are still active for years. I'm sure that, to the -notable- exception of owen, for 3 years, the 10 first committers are LibLimers and BibLibreros[*] ! (/me dunno how to count chris C., as he has been a liblimer partially during this period) We see here a change in Koha model. You can think/find it's a shame, but I think that Koha is now too complex (from a functionnal point of view) to have ppl involved on a "spare time" contribution basis. Learning koha internals + librarian terms + zebra + ... is not a small thing ! [*] ppl from BibLibre. BibLibre is hard enough to pronounce, BibLibrers is impossible ;-) so, we've choosen to be BibLibreros :D -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08
