Just a quick one today, a more detailed blog coming soon - but I thought I'd give RSS Club Members (you!) a sneak peek.
A few months ago I saw a post on Mastodon from NLnet - they were looking for Open Source projects to apply for grant funding. The deadline was less than 24 hours away, so I rushed in an application.
There was a ping-pong of emails where I detailed more about what I planned to do, and where they kept me abreast of their timescales.
Finally, after about 6 months, I received the most delightful email confirming my place in the programme!
I'm officially part of the NGI0 Commons Fund.
So, what's the project? Regular readers will remember that I created ActivityBot as a lightweight, single-file, fully featured ActivityPub server. The grant will enable me to improve the code, test the usability, have a security audit, do some accessibility work, and make it more robust.
I'm also going to need a logo 🤖
You can read more about the project on the NLnet site.
Because this is an RSS-only post, it doesn't support comments. You can get in touch with me if you'd like to say something nice.
