| <p>Some Apache committers have successfully run funding campaigns to support their work on their favorite Apache projects.</p> |
| <p>This is ok in principle, but you have to make it clear that the campaign is your own thing, and avoid any confusion about the role of the |
| ASF and how its projects work.</p> |
| <p>This page gives a few examples of how to do that.</p> |
| <p>If you have any question about this, feel free to ask on our |
| <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@community.apache.org">dev@community.apache.org</a> mailing list.</p> |
| <h2 id="example-disclaimer-for-a-personal-crowdfunding-campaign">Example disclaimer for a personal crowdfunding campaign <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink" href="#example-disclaimer-for-a-personal-crowdfunding-campaign">¶</a></h2> |
| <p>Here’s a nice example, based on a disclaimer one committer has used:</p> |
| <div class="highlight"><pre tabindex="0" style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4;"><code class="language-text" data-lang="text"><span style="display:flex;"><span> Disclaimers: This campaign is done by me, FOO, as an independent individual, not |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> by the Apache Software Foundation nor the Apache BAR project. I'm not representing |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> the Foundation in any way in this campaign, nor does Apache endorse it. The |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> Foundation has a policy of not paying for development work. All its members are |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> voluntary, me included. Any code I'll write or change will have to pass the usual BAR |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> team approval process. If this campaign isn't funded, I'll continue participating |
| </span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span> in the BAR project in the same way as before. |
| </span></span></code></pre></div><p>See also the <a href="https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/community-dev/201310.mbox/%3Cop.w4fwv6ewovlrp5%40arsmachina%3E">discussion thread</a> about this |
| campaign.</p> |
| <h2 id="friends-of-apache-groovy">Friends of Apache Groovy <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink" href="#friends-of-apache-groovy">¶</a></h2> |
| <p><a href="https://opencollective.com/friends-of-groovy">Friends of Apache Groovy</a> has another good example which supports activities |
| in the Apache Groovy community.</p> |
| <p>The <a href="https://opencollective.com/friends-of-groovy#section-about">explanation in their ‘about’ section</a> makes it clear that the |
| initiative is <em>not</em> affiliated with or driven by the ASF, and also that any contributions, funded or not, have to go |
| through the usual Apache Groovy acceptance process.</p> |
