It's been on my list of places to visit if/when I finally manage to make a trip down there.

How steep exactly is that hill out there?

(Probably another dedicated visit to Zealandia up in Wellington, with full photogear is also in order - but that won't be happening with the upcoming trip in a few weeks)

Good observation! Certainly once you get to the point of having a somewhat well funded foundation, it does change the balance a bit.

On one hand, it's good that people who have spent a considerable amount of their lives working on a project can start getting paid for their efforts if they want that to be their career. However, it does also mean that you're less likely to retain others who might've contributed before, but now might not bother (with all the bureaucracy + pay-politics)
