Debian Addresses Security Problems

An anonymous reader writes "After suffering manpower shortages and other issues, Debian says it has finally addressed concerns that it was falling behind on security. Debian's elected leader Branden Robinson yesterday flagged an inquiry into the processes by which security updates are released, citing a potential lack of transparency and communication failures. It was also an appropriate time to add new members to Debian's security team, as several have been inactive for a while, Robinson said. Debian initial security problems can be found in this earlier Slashdot posting."

Can somebody tell me . . .

Why is 'free' software so dependant on money?

I thought it was essentially an idea that worked simply because of the love of programming, rather than the need of money.

Or was I being unrealistic?
