Who will receive the funding from this tax? What criteria would you use to distribute funding? Windfall for the NPM leftpad module I guess.

- jorvi 3y agoI’m sure you could set up a non-profit organization with smart people that are passionate (but not dogmatic) about open source, that could selectively fund projects or even just GitHub sponsoring / bug bounties.
- marcosdumay 3y agoSo, you just solved general governance? No, you absolutely can't set such an organization and expect it to work. You are marginally better giving the task to some government body, but expect failure either way.
- jorvi 3y agoYea right man, based on a single comment let me just bash out a 500-page governance manifest + structure real quick. I don’t know what you were expecting.
