As a core contributor, Matt has expressed on many occasions he would like to be able to pay us for all the time we've spent on the project, but I've always told him we're doing it as volunteers and not for money (my day job pays me sufficiently) and I think he needs it more since he doesn't have other sources of income. And if he did get enough from sponsorships to pay a second salary, I think he should hire someone not already a volunteer to broaden the skillset of the team. One of our biggest problems at this stage is that the members of the core team don't have expertise in a few specific areas that Caddy is lacking in (e.g. metrics/prometheus stuff)
