RFC: Contribute to dependency OpenCollective funds #22

Open glennawatson opened 5 years ago

glennawatson commented 5 years ago

Organisations such as Fody have started up a OpenCollective and have been asking for Open Source projects to start their own and fund them.

I think we should do a survey of our dependencies and where appropriate contribute to those OpenCollective's.

In terms of amount to contribute I think if possible we should contribute around $5 to $10 USD per month as a maximum price point, with amounts going over that amount getting approval from another RFCs.

We should only contribute (without producing another RFC) direct projects we rely on.

Given that our team members are at the forefront of promoting the sustainability of OpenSource we should start contributing where relevant to other projects.

At the moment I been paying for the Fody contribution myself and then invoicing the OpenCollective.

OpenCollective has a feature where one organisation can fund another directly to avoid some of that paperwork.

Our only two dependencies at the moment outside standard libraries are Fody and DynamicData
