Funding
Three conditions should be met to create a credible fundraising solicitation for high net worth (hnw) individuals and foundations. (1) Clear presentation of the project's mission and significance. (2) Plan to achieve that mission with milestones, budget breakdown, etc. (3) One completed iteration of the Open Source Development Pipeline that shows how each of the 40 items will be developed and 'opened.'
Possible Funding Channels
- High net worth individuals (ex. rich kids, financial service professionals
- Progressive foundations See list at Foundations
- True Fans (subscription basis)
- Selling hardware
Getting collaborators
It was agreed that the first thing is to create a platform at opensourceecology.org that facilitates collaboration. The priority now is creating this platform; then we can start actively going after collaborators from Hackerspaces, colleges etc. etc.
