Open techtonik opened 8 years ago
Yeah, that's why I have opened https://github.com/jayfk/fundingoss.com/issues/1
Nice. I usually search for issues. =) So, keep this open for a discussion space?
maybe just merge the bugs
"Somewhat funded" needs deeper investigation. Means "funded, but things could be better". To get to more theories why open source projects are underfunded and how to fix it, we need more data. And one of the metrics that I think would be useful is called capacity, which I see as two things:
I am not able to define exact formula for project capacity right now (in terms of money, people or vespene gas), but some answers may at least help with starting:
So, how do you think - is it the idea of capacity definition is something that could be that useful for this research? Can it be improved?
@nayafia, the current choices for funding status are "Funded", "Self-Funded", "No funded" and "Unknown", but many projects are
partially
funded meaning that only few (or even one) developer works on the project (maybe part time), oroccasionally
funded meaning that somebody is occasionally does the work for bounty (provided that maintainers are still there to review and merge the requests).
