You're way over allocating. W3C has roughly 380 members (some full, most
affiliate).
Staff is considerably lower than that (people pages aren't secret, you can
see those).
W3C budget goes, of course, to more than just salary, though that's a very big
part of any expenditure.
(and no, these folks aren't getting rich off member dues, they're paid at
academic levels through the host institutions. Read 'underpaid for their
talents' ).
