+### Can we get our own, or pay other, developers to contribute the features we want?
+
+While we accept many code contributions we likely won't accept feature contributions unless you've opened
+a line of discussion up with the project, and had BookStack maintainers confirm that an idea/scope would be accepted.
+As touched on in the previous answer above, implementation is rarely the real cost of a new feature
+and we don't want the direction of the platform to be directed by those with the most money (in this case,
+those that are able to pay developers to implement the features they want).
+
+It could seem like contributing the code for new features would be "doing the work for us", but quite often
+it results in the core interesting coding logic being done, leaving us with testing, responsibility & maintenance long-term.
+To be clear, we're happy to be getting others involved in contributing to the project, but we just don't like to have
+feature contributions lead the direction & scope of the project.
