Add Signal Foundation #76

Closed nayafia closed 6 years ago

nayafia commented 6 years ago

Signal recently announced the creation of a $50M foundation to support their ongoing development, thanks to Brian Acton (cofounder of WhatsApp).

We’ve always wanted to do much more, and our limitations have often been challenging. Over the lifetime of the project, there have only been an average of 2.3 full-time software developers, and the entire Signal team has never been more than 7 people.
