Summary: The above LibrePlanet talk by Chris Thompson, Keegan Rankin, Micky Metts, and Ben Melancon was uploaded by the FSF 4 days ago (slides here; PeerTube link); From the official page: “There is a great challenge around payment for building platforms and working on free software projects. Sometimes a client will pay for development and other times there are unfunded projects that are built for community use by volunteers. What are some good business models that financially support the developers? Is an infrastructure needed to support payment for working on free software projects? Could OpenCollective be a path for sponsoring multiple development projects for teams of developers?”
