Scientific open source software has often advanced by volunteer efforts with little financial support. In recent years, there has been an increase in different groups funding open source software. How has this changed the open source community? Where would future funding have the largest impact in the open source landscape? What new thing would you build that would make the lives of developers, researchers, and users easier? How much support is needed and what are the best ways to provide that support? What large scale project doesn’t exist that needs to exist? How do you balance funded and volunteer efforts? Join this lively discussion to help identify key focus areas for open source funding and resources.
