> One potential problem is that some packages are small, but very popular. They might need less funding that larger, less frequently used packages (e.g. compare util-linux with Shotwell).

There could be a field for "After what point is money better spent elsewhere?" possibly due to few full-time volunteers versus $DAYJOB developers.
