SwellRT Applying to Mozilla Open Source Support
Hi all,
SwellRT community is going to apply for the Mozilla Open Source Support
grant (deadline tomorrow November 30th)
The initial grant supporting SwellRT development has finished, so we
require to find out new funding oportunities like this to keep a stable
development effort to move SwellRT to a beta status.
Our aim is to manage MOSS grant (or any other) through an independent
organization specificly related with Open Source dev.
In this context I would like to appeal the Wave community for...
- invite any developer from the Wave community to get paid from this grant
to improve Wave core codebase.
- invite Wave community to suggest development task that could be included
in the grant's scope that could improve Wave code base.
- to ask Apache representatives if they would like to handle the grant.
Any suggestion and advice is welcome.
Thanks,
Pablo

of course @upayavira I know Apache positioning. I didn't mean to involve
Apache directly, just to offer some help to Wave's community.
Thanks!

Pablo,
Many people are paid to work on Apache projects, but none of them are
paid *by Apache*. It has been a principle that goes back a long way that
keeps things even and avoids many conflicts.
You are welcome to seek funding for your project. You are welcome to
seek funding to work on Apache Wave. As far as Apache is concerned, you
will just be another person paid to work on an Apache codebase - Apache
cannot give any special affirmation of your effort above those of any
other contributor.
Does that make sense?
Upayavira
