Re: [tycho-dev] GitHub Sponsors
|
Okay, I have hooped it would be more easy (e.g. just opt-in somwhere and
then people can start give money for more excutors), but your ide seems
reasonable, I will create a sponsor page for my tycho activities right now!
But it seems its not that easy for an individual to spnsor additional
resources and requires an "Eclipse Membership"

Now we have moved to github it might be an option to enable Github
sponsors? We could use the money for example to buy more

are busy :-\
Sorry, but I think we should really stay away of the project having to
deal with money flow. It's going to add a lot of work, a lot of
friction, and will require complex discussions with Eclipse Foundation
about who does the accounting and so on.
I'd rather see interested contributors enable and promote GitHub
sponsors for themselves. Having people getting some ROI for their
contributions is IMO infinitely more important, easy and scalable than a
project holding a treasure. Then those contributors can discuss with
other individuals or organizations the possibility to pay a share of
extra executors for the project if it makes sense to them; but that's
something people can already do.
