- bit sad that I misread "Fund" in the title as "Feud" at first and didn't think anything of itby telestew
- Why doesn't Zig attract the same sort of lukewarm response that Rust does from parts of communities?by boje
- The Rust Foundation is a 501(c)(6) and not a 501(c)(3). The Rust Foundation would do better for the community if they were a 501(c)(3) and more transparent about finances.
There is no need for a new fund, the existing funds should be directed towards development and there should be greater transparency about how funds are gathered and spent.
This post is devoid of details and action. It should read that the Rust Foundation is going to convert to a 501(c)(3) and ensure that current funds are spent on development. Otherwise, this is a shell game with the existing funds and how they are going to be spent. Understand that sleight of hand bodes poorly and suggest impropriety.
- It's interesting to note that this doesn't actually discuss any funding details. Who, how much, when, how? The devil is always in the details.by mperham
