Discussion: If we had money, what FOSS would we build?
FOSSY 2023

We often hear that the main thing FOSS needs to be successful is more money. But what concrete steps would we take if we had money? Who should we give it to and what should they spend it on? Bring your ideas to this Q&A hosted by two FOSS business leaders, who have seen what money can (and can't) do for FOSS. We will briefly describe our experiences, and then open it up for discussion to dive into actionable plans for using money to improve software freedom, through non-profit, worker co-operative, and/or for-profit endeavors.

Speakers: Denver Gingerich Stephen Paul Weber
