If the USA would consider paying anonymous people money laundering then I'd agree that we shouldn't risk this.
Nevertheless you raised an interesting issue which will also be relevant to non-anonymous employees, I'd like to say something about it: On Monday, May 08, 2017 04:57:10 PM Ian wrote: > There is also a trust issue, since we would probably need to give them > access to source repos and other things - and it would be irresponsible to > do that with someone we know nothing about. For security reasons I don't think any of the core contributors will accept giving direct push and/or release privileges to someone who hasn't been on the project for years, me included. If we hire a stranger they will have to commit to their own repository and send pull requests just like any other unknown new contributor. Further, for code quality reasons, payment should only be sent once their code has been reviewed and accepted by the core team. Freenet is a complex project, we cannot blindly merge code from someone who hasn't proven to be familiar with the codebase yet. Proving this takes years.
