Hi Mario,

thank you for the input. If I interpret the information on the webpage correctly, the system works for one-on-one funding of tasks between e.g. a developer and a stakeholder for specific tasks of a project. I don't know if this would work in the case of Groovy, because here we would probably have a larger number of=C2=A0 people giving smaller amounts to fund a development goal together...

Cheers,
mg

I=C2=A0thought this could be worth sharing.

The company I work for developed some time ago, Tribe (https://tribe.taiga.io/)

Tribe is a task-based employment marketplace for product development. It was created with software development in mind. The tasks can be managed through the open sourced Taiga management platform (https://taiga.io/). So tasks could be managed in the context of a project.

More details about Tribe (how it works, payments...) :


I hope this helps
Mario

Hi Eric,

thank you for the suggestion. Do you know how much money they take for their service and if they accept Paypal (I just thought about this, and not accepting Paypal is imho close to a knockout, to keep the entry barrier as low as possible; that would exclude Kickstarter according to their FAQ, but here one could probably assume that many potential Groovy backers would already have an account...).

Do they support specific funding foals also (which typically attract more funding), or is a subscription only model ?

Cheers,
mg

Actually, Apache also accept donations but I think the standard policy is that it isn't then directed back to a specific project.

I actually am of the impression that this is the only policy... might be wrong here.

I think in general we would be in favor of doing this so long as it was done well - and most of us wonder whether we have the time to market/advertise it well. I also suspect that having a well-defined goal (like what JUnit 5 did to some degree) greatly helps to attract some one-off investment interest.

+1
