Recognizing sponsors in repos/project pages? #55

Open dharhas opened 2 years ago

dharhas commented 2 years ago

As we (Quansight) consider, moving conda-store to conda-incubator, one thing that we are likely to want to do is call out some of the (fiscal) sponsors of that project in either the readme or the project website. I didn't see anything in the governance docs about this (or I missed it).

So two questions.

  1. Do we need guidelines around this for incubator projects
  2. Do we need guidelines around this for core projects

The main purpose for this is to encourage companies to participate/fund efforts to improve the Conda ecosystem. We have clients who want to be seen as good open source citizens and this is one way that they can do that. It would also be nice for the current core companies that are on the steering council and heavily investing in Conda to be acknowledged somewhere.

A somewhat related discussion from the dask community is here: https://github.com/dask/community/issues/44
