    Profit!

  3. Free Software Success Formula 1. Open source 2. ???CROWD-FUNDING 3.

    Profit!
  4. None

  5. PyConAU 2013 • Django BoF panel discussion • “Blah blah

    blah Kickstarter campaign to include South in Django core...” How come I never heard about that?
  6. None

  7. I wish there was a feed which had a list

    of new free software crowdfunding campaigns...

  8. I wish there was a feed which had a list

    of new free software crowdfunding campaigns... Oh.... damn.

  9. 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

  10. 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

  11. 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!
