This toolkit was developed using insights from the 2024 Open Source Funding Survey and Report. The objective of the survey was to better understand how organizations (non-profits, private companies, other large entitites) invest in, contribute to, and otherwise support open source software. The documents in this toolkit are meant to help organizations better monitor and track their investment in open source. The toolkit was prepared for the 2024 Linux Foundation Member Summit workshop on open source funding tracking:
The State of Open Source Funding and Guided Workshop: Insights and Best Practices for Improving Open Source Funding - Sam Boysel, Harvard Business School; Kevin Crosby & Stephanie Lincoln, GitHub; Emma Irwin, Microsoft
The toolkit consists of several documents designed to help organizations better monitor their contribution to open source software.
Comments? Suggestions? Other feedback? Our hope is that this toolkit provides a starting point to iterate upon and improve efforts to monitor open source investment. Feel free to engage by opening an issue or starting a discussion.
