    These are volunteers that work for free, right?

    Some are working for free, sure. But mainly GNOME is developed by Red Hat and Canonical, afaict.

    Florian Müllner is a Red Hat employee.

      Yes, however most GNOME developers are not RedHat / Canonical employees.

      Even those that do work for those companies should be treated with dignity. GNOME is free of charge, and no one is obligated to use GNOME.
