我为何每月把收入的 10%(150 美元)捐给 musl libc 项目
Why I'm donating $150/month (10% of my income) to the musl Libc project (2019)
2019 — 2021,它一次次回到首页

导读
这是 Zig 语言作者 Andrew Kelley 2019 年的一篇博文,解释他为何每月将收入的 10%(150 美元)捐给 musl libc 项目,以支持这个 C 标准库实现。2021 年的更新说明这笔捐款已改由 Zig 软件基金会承担。
为什么经久不衰:它记录了一位开源作者从个人捐赠到基金会资助的实践,也引发对开源项目可持续资金与独立治理的持续讨论,今天读来仍有参考价值。

作者更新了 2021 年现状:ZSF 成立、捐款改由基金会承担、Zig 持续发布,并淡出对 V 语言的关注。
2021 年更新:Zig 软件基金会现已成立;我的总收入(包括 ZSF 薪水、GitHub Sponsors、Patreon)现在约为每月 4000 美元。法律上我的 ZSF 年薪是 16 万美元,但我一直把它捐回给组织,因为坦率地说目前收入没那么多,而且我优先把钱给其他 Zig 贡献者。每月给 Rich Felker 的 150 美元现在来自 ZSF,而不是我的个人账户。Zig 0.5.0、0.6.0、0.7.0、0.8.0 都已发布,0.9.0 即将到来。我不再对 V 语言有看法;已经两年没关注它了。

2021 update: * The Zig Software Foundation now exists * My total income including ZSF Salary, GitHub Sponsors, Patreon is now about 4000 USD per month. Legally, my ZSF salary is 160K per year, but I have been consistently donating it back to the org since frankly we just don't have that much revenue at this point in time, and I've been prioritizing getting that money to other Zig contributors. * The $150/month to Rich Felker now comes from ZSF instead of my personal account. * Zig 0.5.0, 0.6.0, 0.7.0, 0.8.0 have all been released. 0.9.0 is coming soon. * I no longer really have an opinion about V; it's been two years since I paid any attention to it.
ZSF 捐款目标过半可再雇两名全职开发者;评论者惊讶很少有基金会优先支付核心开发者。
我想没有比这篇文章更好的提醒了:Zig 软件基金会目前的捐款目标已完成一半,达成后就能再雇两名全职开发者。另外,我了解到许多软件基金会的运作方式,很惊讶地发现很少有基金会把支付核心开发者作为优先目标。我鼓励大家看看 ZSF 的使命,并对比我们如何花收到的钱。

I guess no better post than this to remind everyone that the Zig Software Foundation is half-way through the current donation goal, which would allow us to hire two more full-time developers. https://github.com/sponsors/ziglang On a separate note, I'm learning a lot about how different software foundations operate and I'm very surprised to see that very few prioritize the goal of paying their core developers. I encourage everyone to check out the mission of the Zig Software Foundation and to compare it with how we're spending the money we're getting. Everything is available here: https://ziglang.org/zsf/
ZSF 坚持不让大科技公司进董事会以保持独立,并与 Rust 治理和 Linus/LF 模式对比。
引自[1]:“Zig 软件基金会永远不会让大型科技公司进入董事会。例如我们感谢 Pex 每月捐 5000 美元,即使他们没有董事会席位。我们的目标是通过让捐款在多方之间保持平衡来维持独立性。”考虑到最近关于 Rust 领导/治理的争议,这似乎很相关。另一个有趣的模式是 Linux 基金会和 Linus Torvalds:一个(不太像)仁慈的终身独裁者,心里装着项目的最佳利益,但似乎没有受到 LF 支持公司的不当影响。

From [1]: > However, Zig Software Foundation will never have big tech companies on the board of directors. We are grateful to Pex, for example, for donating $5,000/month, even though they have no board seats. Our goal is to maintain independence by keeping the mix of donations balanced among many parties. Seems relevant given the recent hub-bub over Rust leadership/governance. Another interesting model is LF and Linus Torvalds. (NS)BDFL who has the best interest of the project in mind, but doesn't seem improperly influenced by LF supporter companies. [1] https://ziglang.org/news/jakub-konka-hired-full-time/
推荐 Giving What We Can 社区,成员承诺捐出至少 10% 收入给有效慈善。
可以考虑加入 Giving What We Can——一个国际社区,成员承诺将至少 10% 的收入捐给他们认为最能有效消除世界最大问题的公益事业。(我自豪地当了 10 年成员。)
