That sounds good on paper, but the chances that someone else will pick up the ball if they abandon it, even if it’s open source, are very slim. If you care about keeping it alive then paying them is a more effective strategy than hoping for random volunteer work by internet strangers.

You, on the other hand, have good chances of being able to learn new tools. So I think the need for this guarantee is exaggerated.
