I think this is what Vittorio was referring to when he said this might be
problematic. This is essentially what conflict-of-interest means. It
doesn't mean that you're a bad person or doing something wrong, it simply
means that there's overlapping goals. For example, in this case, there
might be your personal goals ("get paid for work") vs the project goals
("get money for maintenance"). They're (partially) overlapping but not
equal, because they're different angles of the same situation.

Sometimes there is no ideal solution that satisfies everyone. As I said
before, that's normal and that's OK.

Ronald
