Make available funding information for floss.fund #171

Open fricklerhandwerk opened 1 month ago

There's this thing: https://floss.fund/blog/announcing-floss-fund/

They offer 10-100k in financial support, but have very special requirements for "applying".

In order to get on their radar, we need a .well-known file with contact information, and an email address on which we're responsive.

I'd be available for responsiveness, but setting up new email forwarders is currently stuck on the @NixOS/infra team.

@fricklerhandwerk we can have new email forwarders just now with the old setup. Nothing is blocked. We will later transfer it to our own email server.

Ok. Looks like we cannot add new destination email addresses in improvmx without asking the support. This is probably just a way to avoid spammers. Nevertheless, I hope we can switch to the email server soon from @jfly soon.

We're not stuck; in the worst case, we can pay $90.-/year to upgrade the account. I removed one of the old aliases so there is room now. Just tell us what alias you want to get @fricklerhandwerk.

We could have fundraising@nixos.org I guess. Wrote you a private message. Anyone else who wants to stay in the loop on that?

I'd like to be in the loop, and in any case, we should definitely include the SC once it's formed. [I'm available to ensure they are informed, if you want]
