@Gina, congrats on this great milestone! It's awesome that government agencies are thinking about these important initiatives, wish we had a team like yours in our Ministry of digital transformation (Ukraine)... Fingers crossed for your success! 🤩

@Gina @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @johan @marlenabcn @opensource @developer Is Dutch digital sovereignty being protected by Anubis? https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@michaelmaguire @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @johan @marlenabcn @opensource @developer it should be! We'll look at implementing it.

@Gina @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @johan @marlenabcn @opensource @developer oh, cool! I was only half-teasing though. I had clicked through some of your announcement docs and when I tried the Forgejo "Try it now" link it used Anubis and said "Made with in " and I thought it was great that Dutch digital sovereignty would be protected by Canadians.

Great. Have they decided how they will be sponsoring @Codeberg yet?

Awesome!!

@Gina I’m always cheering for government and the public sector adopting OSS projects like @forgejo!

Do @BZKopensource and other participating organizations contribute (financially and in persondays) to the sustainability of the project?

I mean either hiring the volunteers who work on it, directly contributing to the project, or supporting Forgejo financially

[cnx@awkward.place]

@janneke@todon.nl, I’d rather it doesn’t grow into another GitHub, money should be put on forge federation instead IMHO.

[janneke@todon.nl]

@cnx
Codeberg is the nonprofit founded by the developers of @forgejo

Please support @Codeberg

[cnx@awkward.place]

@janneke@todon.nl, @forgejo@floss.social being under the umbrella of @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de does not mean all money going into Codeberg is for funding Forgejo. If one uses the service it makes sense to support it, but in the case of NL, it should not be contributing to the centralization of hosting services.

@Gina @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @johan @marlenabcn @opensource @developer grats!!!! super important work

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@thibaultamartin @forgejo @BZKopensource We intend to be active contributors. We've already found a fix to something that we'll be upstreaming. I'd like to also check for financial possibilities, but that will come after the pilot this year.

[janneke@todon.nl]

@cnx @forgejo @Codeberg
I'm sure a deal can be made. Especially when you're the Dutch government.

Also, not contributing anything (it doesn't have to be money) will certainly not help the development of forgejo or federation.

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@johan @wsslmn @wlaatje @forgejo @BZKopensource @tomootes @bo @marlenabcn me too!

[thibaultamartin@mamot.fr]

@Gina @forgejo @BZKopensource thanks for pushing in the right direction
