adding FUNDING.yml #355

Open julien51 opened 5 years ago

julien51 commented 5 years ago

As an Open Source project, we @unlock-protocol believe Rimble should have a FUNDING.yml file which lets people make donations if they use the software.

This pull requests adds donations thru an Unlock lock. Locks are smart contract which let people become members by purchasing a key. The key itself is a non fungible token: 🗝 .

You can make a donation (and purchase a key!) on this page (linked inside of the FUNDING.yml file)

This specific lock is at 0xE7dD173114d9be8Cc52ea693277d8c2F3Af416F1. The curent key price is 1 DAI. I currently own the lock but I'll happily transfer its ownership to you if you can send me an address ;) After that, you will be able to update the price, the name and withdraw the funds from the Unlock dashboard.

Keys are valid for 1 month and there can be an infinite number of keys.

PS: if you want to create your own FUNDING.yml link you can easily with this application.

One quick addition, when/if you merge this you also need to enable donations in the settings (see https://github.com/ConsenSys/rimble-ui/settings) :

Hello @gesquinca ! I'd love to get your feedback on that one. We blogged about the motivations behind that PR.

One of the next steps that we're thinking of is to create some kind of "shared" lock between many Ethereum OSS projects. The idea is that people can then chose to support a single project, like Ethlint, or the whole ethereum OSS ecosystem. This shared lock would belong to some kind of shared address (or even a DAO) to organize the funds and maybe distribute them to specific projects.

Anyway, my point is that I'd love to kick off a discussion here :)

Edit: We wrote more about that DAO for open source idea.

@julien51 Thanks for the update. I'll check out your writings. I do really like what you're all doing.

Update on our end. We still haven't gotten a solid answer on who should custodian any possible assets from this, so we'll keep on deferring this PR until then.
