What's your evidence for this?  I'm curious.  Not that the 
composition of new adopters matters particularly - it's just 
interesting to know.

If you're serious, put up some money and maybe I can match it 
(and there is a decent chance one or two other larger commercial 
users might contribute also).  One doesn't need much 
infrastructure to organise things, BTW.  I have a private gitlab 
instance and a way to pay people and we're already trying to make 
the ecosystem a better in modest ways - for example we have 
already contributed back our internal changes on our own fork to 
dub.
