I did not say it had no possible justification, merely that paying 
developers ought to be a higher priority.  The developers have spent a 
lot more of their energy, time, and personal money on the project, over 
the course of several *years*.  Beginning to reimburse board members who 
have hardly served for a *week* does not seem even remotely in the same 
range.
