Covered by umbrella like Conservancy? Long way to go!
And the very issue of "pay for feature" development was considered to be almost certainly excluded.
I don't think it's a long journey, it just needs the right people to commit to it. Alex could have done it, but stopped being involved before the decision was made.
Direct pay per feature, perhaps this isn't sensible, but I don't think it's that important, either. If people see that donations are useful to the project, and the project generally produces good things, I think it would work fine.
But I don't know if my opinion is relevant. Who is official ML now? Who's left? g3gg0, I think, but he is pretty quiet
