So we still have the freedom to put tasks into the application that SDCC developers think are useful and that they want to work on. Some rough guidelines: I intend to submit an application to the NLnet NGI0 Commons Fund. * NLnet is based in the EU, and they can fund anyone within the EU, and also projects where the majority of the work is done in the EU. There are some issues with funding developers in certain countries, AFAIK in particular Russia, USA, Iran, North Korea. A potential issue is that AFAIK, NGI0 funding for 2025 an onwards has not yet been officially approved by the EU. * The work should be relevant for modern embedded systems. Retrocomputing stuff is AFAIK outside the scope of NGI0 funding. There might be other, more culturally-oriented funding sources for retrocomputing stuff, but I don't know much about that. There's the "Awesome Foundation" which might fund something such work, but I'm in Germany and they mostly fund work in the US and UK, and do not fund work in Germany. * If funding from NLnet received by a developer is taxable income, and in case it is taxed, how, depends on your local tax laws, and their interpretation. Unfortunately, for many countries, this is simply not known yet. Philipp |
