Hi folks,
A question I occasionally get asked by organisations that use Python
commercially but don't currently employ any core developers themselves
is "How can we prioritise getting particular issues
fixed/reviewed/merged?".
A related problem we have in the PSF is knowing which core developers
I like it, +1.
It'd also be useful to see other developers' availability (i.e. "free
for six months from March 2016") if you ever wanted to try and organize
a pitch-to-the-PSF-for-sponsorship type project.
Trent.

It doesn't sound like the devguide is ideally the right place for it.
Actually, for a guide devoted to attract new contributors, saying "hey,
we'd really like you to contribute on a volunteer basis, but here is a
list of people who prefer being paid to do the same thing" may send the
wrong messag
