Aren't most people who're working in their spare time on end-user
application just doing this 'cause they're interested in this
particular application ?

However, if you're working several hours in your spare time on
"core GNOME" (whatever this'll be) then I think it's more likely
that you also feel some kind of association with GNOME.

Of cause there may be company-hired people who believe in the
spirit - but I think in this case we can treat them the same as
people who're working in their spare time.
