@janl I am looking to solve this by exploring options to finance the development of the #openDesk components through some other means than this open core model. if you know people that have experience there please do connect me.

@lsmith ah yes, let me see, my tried and trusted way to get funding for open source that works so great, where did I leave that again? ;D

@janl hehe .. well here I think the “good news” is that there is plenty of money for this. the problem is that this money currently is send to Redmond. the other issue is that public sector procurement policies are not build enough around the idea of public goods.

even the swiss law #EMBAG that mandates open source for public sector procurement only applies to custom development, not for funding the development of open source so that no licenses have to be paid by anyone.
