Maybe I do not know some important details, but why DSF (Django Software Foundation), does not do Django consulting in the first place. They very highly likely can do the best Django consulting in the world.

Secondly, maybe DSF could bake some great products for/from Django? The first ideas I have is Django specific, and user friendly:

- PaaS;

- analytics (as in 'new relic');

- crash and performance logging (as in 'sentry' and/or 'opbeat')

- CI;

DSF can just simply make business, by making great infrastructure stack around Django.
