NLnet announces funding for 62 projects
The NLnet Foundation has announced a new group of projects receiving funding through the Next Generation Internet (NGI) Zero Commons Fund.
Free and open source technologies, open standards, open hardware and open data help to strengthen the open web and the open internet. The projects selected by NLnet all contribute in their own way to this important goal, and will empower end users and the community at large on different layers of the stack. For example, there are people working a browser controlled ad hoc cellular network (Wsdr) which can be used to create small mobile networks where they are needed. The open hardware security key Nitrokey is aiming for formal certification of their implementation of the FIDO2 standard, and will be adding encrypted storage capabilities. There are also more applied technologies: the high end open hardware microscope OpenFlexure will enable among others e-health use cases such as telepathology, allowing medical professionals to work together to help people in more remote areas.See the announcement for the full list of selected projects and the current projects page for other projects recently funded by NLnet.
[$] Libxml2's "no security embargoes" policy
Libxml2, an XML parser and toolkit, is an almost perfect example of the successes and failures of the open-source movement. In the 25 years since its first release, it has been widely adopted by open-source projects, for use in commercial software, and for government use. It also illustrates that while many organizations love using open-source software, far fewer have yet to see value in helping to sustain it. That has led libxml2's current maintainer to reject security embargoes and sparked a discussion about maintenance terms for free and open-source projects.
