Great, just what we need, a 21 million dollar fund for new middle management and bureaucracy that will “catalyse community-driven development” This is fucking stupid. Should have just split the money and give chunks to the Apache, *BSD, Linux, Python Software, and Rust foundations depending on just what sort of development work they wanted to foster. This is the software funding equivalent of those charities where only 10% of the donation money ends up actually doing the job it was donated for. Be it sick kids or starving kids or digging wells, this kind of wasteful abstraction is rife in the charity/donation world and it’s a damn shame to see it starting to happen in the world of software funding.
