An earlier version of the manifesto contained pledged resources from each company (you can still find it in commit history). It totalled to ~10 full-time engineers just from founding orgs. It was removed to simplify adding their entries for new pledgees
- jen20 3y agoDo the founding orgs have public disclosure of their finances? It seems the vast majority of them are VC backed companies that probably don't even have two years worth of runway, let alone be in a position to meaningfully commit to funding engineers for five years.
- myroon5 3y agoOmitting commitment details may simplify pledges, but it also makes pledges almost meaningless. I'd take pledges much more seriously if they still had details
- sausagefeet 3y agoI am a co-founder of Terrateam and we have made a pledge for OpenTF. I understand where you are coming from, but right now it is difficult to know what exactly to pledge as we want a dialogue with HashiCorp on what they need as well, if they want to donate to a foundation.
