I'm student, and i don't have a extra job, but i think me and Nathan are the
only students that spends lots of time working on E17, and i don't think i
would fell comfortable recieving money to code E, i do this because its fun,
and not too earn money on it.
I must confess i wouldn't mind getting some extra $, but what about Carsten,
Till, Christian, Brian and all the others who spend lots of time in E code
and are not students.

This is something i do for fun, and not to gain money, but i don't say i
wouldn't mind getting some bucks for working on it. I think most of us
developers agree, but just because im a student i wouldn't feel comfortable
recieving money, when others like Christian, Carsten, Till, etc wouldn't
get any just because they have jobs, etc and code just as much as i do and
even more.

If any of us developers were to recieve money, i would like if it were equal
to all of us, just not us students.
