Personaly, I think that working for fun on spare time gives the best achievements, as that happend with my self. I dont state here that developers should work harder. NOT AT ALL. But somekind of non-monetary reward should be given. Even if some take advantage of others work, what debian and free software represents will prevail. If one day debian gets a little short in cash for its basic needs, there will be plenty of people willing to help. I will, though never done it yet :-)
