I turned "too low" into a link to budget for 2016, which is slightly
less than 13K USD. If we had to only spend in sysadmin time it would
allow for ~1K USD month. That's ~885 EUR. How much sysadmin time can
that amount buy ? At the rate QGIS is currently offering to bugfixers
that'd make less than 10 hours per month. Is that enough to improve
the infrastructural situation ? I don't believe so.
