Back in February we and Linux Foundation announced sponsoring Milosz

I see that according to

there simply wasn't enough funding. Maybe the Inkscape committee could
discuss this and sponsor the project? Our Text tool really demands

The Linux Fund folks and Bradley from the conservancy discussed that,
and they said that it is possible.
Personally, I'm just a little concerned about paying developers in
general. I realize that this is a small situation -- but I guess I
worry about the precedent there.
