PyConAU 2013 • Django BoF panel discussion • “Blah blah
blah Kickstarter campaign to include South in Django core...” How come I never heard about that?
None
I wish there was a feed which had a list
of new free software crowdfunding campaigns...
I wish there was a feed which had a list
of new free software crowdfunding campaigns... Oh.... damn.
cffsw.modernthings.org @crowdfundfloss Aims • Keep a record of crowdfunding campaigns
for free software projects • Successful and (some) unsuccessful • Maybe also free culture, free hardware • List current/new campaigns
cffsw.modernthings.org @crowdfundfloss Why would you care? • Potential backer: want
to financially support FLOSS (or collect stickers) • Potential campaigner: research before launching your own campaign • Potential researcher: study what works – so we as a community can be more successful
cffsw.modernthings.org @crowdfundfloss How can you help? • Spread the word
• Let me know about any existing campaigns I haven't covered (there must be lots!) • Let me know when you hear about new campaigns!
