Had a nice Manyfold demo planned out, then discovered that user email isn't included in OpenCollective webhooks, despite it being there in all the admin pages, CSV export, etc.

You could take everyone at the closing speech of #fosdem and give them all β¬50k a year to work purely on open source for the measly sum of β¬75m - not that much more than it cost to make one crappy Melania Trump documentary.
