Because you want to. If you don't want to do it, don't. The whole point of open-source projects is that people work on them because they want to not because they are being forced to. If you love what you are doing, you will do a better job. Linus gets paid to hack the kernel now but didn't used to and I'll bet he would keep doing it even if he stopped getting paid in the future.
