@inkscape #Inkscape / #inkscape was probably missed due to a typo.

@inkscape The posting says that the rate is the "fixed Software Freedom Conservancy contractor rates". I was unable to find the rate on the SFC's website - can you point me to the current SFC contractor rates?

@gairdeachas

I looked for them too. Last year's rate was $75 per hour for contractors in the EU/US.

@inkscape I'm definitely interesting in bug admin role.

Been daily driving 1.5 from as soon as it hit the available channels (I like to track new releases in this way and catch anything I can).

@inkscape Thank you for you work, to continue hiring humans and preserving our freedom.

I'm not a regular inkscape user but I value all free software and reading your hiring post is, in those times, a breath of fresh air.

Donating some bucks was very little in comparison.
