[Pandas-dev] Tidelift

[William Ayd]

What is the minimum amount we are asking for? The $1,000 a month for NumPy seems rather low and I thought previous emails had something in the range of $3k a month.

I don’t think we necessarily need or would be that much improved by $12k per year so would rather aim higher if we are going to do this
