“Software in the Public Interest (SPI) is a non-profit corporation founded to act as a fiscal sponsor for organizations that develop open source software and hardware. It provides services such as accepting donations, holding funds and assets, … SPI qualifies for 501©(3) (U.S. non-profit organization) status. This means that all donations made to SPI and its supported projects are tax deductible for donors in the United States.”
Software in the Public Interest (SPI) is a non-profit corporation founded to act as a fiscal sponsor for organizations that develop open source software and hardware.
[SPI] handles several projects of similar type and size (e.g., Arch and Debian).
Seems a good thing, and hopefully now that US donations are tax-deductible there’ll be more of them.
As someone who uses both Debian & Gentoo, this is good news!
