Become a sponsor to Claudia Pellegrino
Free and open-source software plays a big part in our lives.
Sign up and become a sponsor for Claudia on GitHub today to support her work!
What’s in it for me?
-
Make a difference. Sponsoring your favorite open source maintainers is an excellent way to give back to your favorite project.
-
Be heard. Becoming a sponsor confirms that my work really matters to you, and will grant you some control over how I prioritize my work.
-
Keep it alive. Sponsorship helps your favorite projects to continue being maintained, and thus your personal and professional workflows to live longer.
-
Less bureaucracy. At your workplace, contributing to GitHub is not always possible due to licensing and trade secrets. Becoming a sponsor takes less time than hour-long discussions with legal.
-
Cancel anytime. End your sponsorship anytime you like – no questions asked.
Who are you, and why do you do this?
I’m Claudia, software developer and open-source fan based in Darmstadt, Germany. I’m into all things macOS. Nice to meet you!
I’ve joined GitHub Sponsors because I feel it will give users and maintainers that “I wish this had existed years ago” feeling.
What if I choose not to sponsor you?
I may be a little more selective when prioritizing tasks. But be sure I’m still going to treat you as the first-class GitHub citizen you are.
Why sponsor you (and not someone else)?
I’m sure thousands of people deserve your sponsorship.
My suggestion is that you start sponsoring someone right now. As the GitHub Sponsors feature gains traction, pick your favorite people later as they become available.
Ethics, transparency, and disclosure
Any sponsorship means a possible conflict of interest. Regarding my work on Homebrew, I’ve decided that your sponsorship can’t influence any decision or action I may take in my function as a Homebrew maintainer.
This means that while on github.com/Homebrew:
-
I will do my best to answer your questions or help with technical issues as time allows.
-
I will not help get your formula or cask merged if, for example, your software is not notable enough.
-
I may privately disclose to other Homebrew maintainers the fact that you’re sponsoring me (unless you’ve set your sponsorship to Private, which I will respect). In any case, I’ll never disclose the amount or tier.
On other repositories (e. g. your private tap), the last two restrictions mentioned don’t apply.
