That's the crucial part. Either we find some people who can really take
responsibility (i.e. are NOT busy enough yet) or we will probably have to
BUY time. I don't see an alternative. The money for that should probably not
come from the people who want to make money with Zope for a living, but
rather from our clients. I have no idea yet how we could accomplish that,
but I feel that it is possible.

BTW: I could have posted the same to the EuroZope list, as we have exactly
the same problem there ...
