And there are many FOSS projects that are not hobbyware, and that are
professionally run:
- Linux kernel
- Linux distros Red Hat / Fedory, Debian / Ubuntu, Arch....
- LibreOffice

- Clang
- Python

-- Ford Frick, National League President, reacting to a
threatened strike by some Cardinal players in 1947 if
Jackie Robinson took the field against St. Louis. The
Cardinals backed down and played.
