Hi Ethan,
are you sure he’s already applying to this one? Because it says on their website ( https://www.sovereigntechfund.de/programs/fellowship#timeline-and-outlook ): Timeline and Outlook The application phase will start by the end of the third quarter of 2024, and with the goal that selected maintainers can begin the fellowship in the fourth quarter. The first fellowship pilot will run throughout 2025, and we will evaluate it on an ongoing basis. Based on these evaluations, our experiences running the fellowship, and feedback from participants, we’ll determine how to expand and grow the program for a stronger and healthier open source ecosystem. In particular, we’re aware that the different fellowship options — necessary to accommodate maintainers’ particular situations — will need to be evaluated differently. With the support of an external evaluator and researcher, we’ll be able to better understand the impact and success of the different approaches. We look forward to sharing the results and hope they’ll inform future endeavors in this area.
