I'm pretty sure groups get to say "I'd like to sponsor X number of
interns for this specific project", and there is a fee involved in that
for running the overall project, as well as some groups that just
sponsor the whole project and don't specify the use of their funds.
This was explained somewhere in a previous description of the project,
but I can't find it at the moment.

Is there some specific objection you have with GNOME handling interns of
projects that are not specific to GNOME?
