Our companies feast at the Open Source table year after year. Let's settle up.
Our goal is to establish a new social norm in the tech industry of companies paying Open Source maintainers — a minimum of $2000 per year per developer on staff at our companies, to Open Source maintainers of each company’s choosing. This is in addition to the code, developer time, and gifts-in-kind that many of our companies also contribute.
