I have an academic job, and 20% is expected to be “service”, which helping w/ matplotlib would be considered a part of. Of course I’d never get away with claiming it was the whole 20% (supposed to include internal service, and academic service), but if I were to assign 5% to it, they’d be OK w/ that.  The rest is voluntary.  

Cheers,   Jody

My employer would rather to have the patches upstream than manage them ourselves. They also encourage me to actively participate in the SciPy community. No dedicated work-level percentage though.
