Open Collective team member here. All the money involved in this initiative goes to Open Source Collective 501(c)(6). As a non-profit, all revenues are reinvested back into the mission of building health and sustainability in the open source ecosystem. We're not really "raking in the big money" but if we do, it will all go toward supporting open source. FWIW I agree with you about copyleft licenses, philosophically. But we've taken the approach of being very pragmatic when it comes to working with corporate sponsors, and we can't make them accept certain licenses, etc. Our approach is to build up funding for open source projects so they can be stronger and healthier and have the power to advocate for what they want to see in their ecosystem. |
