[QGIS-Developer] "Needs sponsor" label? (again)

[Régis Haubourg]

Hi
I quite agree with Paolo. What about reversing the logic and add a label
"Funded by QGIS.org" when we tackle a bug or a feature with QGIS.org
ressources ?

This would also help in identifying the issues tackled by our fundings in
the long run, and help in coordinating a bit.

Regards
Régis
