Hi Jarek, thanks for interacting with goteo. It's good to hear they are flexible about not having a second funding round, this was the main blocking point for me.
I would see no objection to running the campaign with them but it's a bit too late for this year, and I'm in favor of running it with Arizuka. We already know Arizuka quite well. They came to the first hackadon to support our efforts. I talked with Arizuka's founder (Fabrice) on the phone last friday. He told me two things: (1) they experiment with a system where some sponsors add money to what people give (something very much along the lines of what we do during the hackadon), he would be glad to experiment this with our campaign ; (2) although arizuka's platform is not fully released under a free software license, they are using free softwares and contribute to them -- Fabrice told me he would prepare a blog post explaining their relationship to FLOSS. Another argument is that there is no contract needed, just a bank account (I plan to ask Louis-David for using withoutmodel.com bank account.) I understand why goteo asks for such a contract, this is a good thing, but Louis-David is very busy and I don't want to delay the campaign just because we need him to sign a contract. Last but not least: Arizuka team have been very helpful last year in a very short time frame, the same that we will have this year. Long story short: we started this discussion a bit too late and I hope we can have a more motivated choice for next year, but for now Arizuka is "good enough", and I'm 100% confident it will work well. If you have no objection, I suggest we do it that way: put the content on the wiki then start a project on Arizuka. I will prepare a vidéo. -- Bastien _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] http://lists.librefunding.org/listinfo/discussion
