Description
Free software powers a substantial proportion of all computing technology in existence, but it’s largely developed and maintained by busy volunteers. What if technologists could get paid to work on their open source passion projects? In this talk, we’ll explore a few recent case studies where funding had a transformative impact on projects within the Python community. I’ll also introduce the recently-formed Python Software Foundation Project Funding work group, and detail how we support technologists in their search for funding.
