The editorialized title "Meta pledges Three-Year sponsorship for Python if GIL removal is accepted" seems misleading at best. The actual wording was:
> support in the form of three engineer-years [...] between the acceptance of PEP 703 and the end of 2025
It seems much more like them pledging engineer time from Meta employees to work on this project than sponsorship, not a monetary sponsorship like the title implies.
