about getting paid to work on curl — 21 years after starting the
project. “I ran curl as a spare time project for decades. Over the
years it became more and more common that users who submitted bug reports
or asked for help about things were actually doing that during their paid
work hours because they used curl in a commercial surrounding – which
sometimes made the situation almost absurd. The ones who actually got paid
to work with curl were asking the unpaid developers to help them
out.”
