Brief mention in the post, but FYI to the thread - .NET Foundation is an independant non-profit (501c6) foundation that supports the .NET open source community. It's run by a community elected board and funded by member donations and a diverse group of corporate sponsors. This is a great example of the kind of work they do to support the community. Disclaimer: I was on staff at .NET Foundation 2016-2019.
