Doesn’t @NumFOCUS provide the organizational structure needed to do this for the projects under its umbrella?

that's the goal of numfocus, I believe. It's basically "A foundation as a service"...I agree it would be well-placed to figure out some of these things, not sure if it's something they've made a push on though.

I'm not sure if numfocus has hired a person for a project yet.

I'm not sure it has. We need to put people to work

If a project brings in money they can use it to pay independent contractors. As far as I know, no one on projects is paid as staff.

NumFOCUS pays a variety of independent contractors who do work on behalf of the projects.

Are these explicitly laid out somewhere? It sounds like there's some deal of confusion within the community supported by numfocus as to the positions etc that are technically a part of numfocus

I don’t see the confusion. Numfocus does not support FTEs of any kind nor does it have plans to. They can help their projects pay contractors.

I just mean in the sense of "which contractor positions for which projects are already set up via numfocus"

The projects who are paying contractors absolutely have access to this type of list for their project.

I mean more like "a list for everybody in the world to see", not for just the projects

I don’t get the logic of why this needs to be visible outside of the projects?
