Round 2,
Thanks Ted,
All your changes are in. I've emboldened the section about "It is your responsibility..." I think your changes make this feel better to me. More straightforward.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

What I think we can't do is imply we've vetted the list in any way other than "they are active contributors." So I think we need to drop the text:
we try and keep this list clean of people with bad reputations.
and
If you have had a bad experience: please contact the project.
We don't have the means to determine who is at fault or whether they were in violation of a contract (assuming one was signed) or anything like that. I don't want to use the word "scammed" as that's not what we want to suggest. But I think that we probably need to have: "It is your responsibility vet the individuals on this list and to ensure that funding these people will achieve the goals you have set for those funds."
Then I would change this "This is a random list of people who have put themselves forwards as people who are contributing to Inkscape funded by users:" to something like "This is a list of Inkscape contributors who have requested their funding platforms to be listed here. If you're a contributor and would like to be listed please XYZ." That way it isn't us judging them in anyway, it is just them requesting to be listed and us honoring that request.
