I was misremembering it. Now that I've checked, it's clear that the claim was that the money was for paying "the team" [1], which consisted of André Arko and David Radcliffe [2]

Your links are off-base. They're from September 2015, which is months after Andre Arko was told to revise the /teams page.

Since no /teams page was archived before March 2015, here's the Github commit of the overly vague team page https://github.com/rubytogether/rubytogether.org/blob/9a03c4.... This page was linked from https://web.archive.org/web/20150425040538/http://RubyTogeth... which stated "We pool funds from corporate and individual members to pay our team[github link]"

Altogether, it demonstrates how Andre misled his audience on who was getting the money. IMO, I see a distinct pattern of him crossing boundaries and then covering it up using his social skills & friend group.


I just want to know how much was David Radcliffe getting paid for his time?


It's all good, you were quoting the blog post.

Frankly that page is even more clear than I remembered. All of this happened so long ago.
