We are pleased to announce that we have formed a foundation (under the auspices of Linux Foundation) to pay the bills for various systems which grew around netdev. The initial motivation was to move the NIPA testing outside of Meta, so that more people can help and contribute. But there should be sufficient budget to sponsor more projects. We set up a GitHub repo to track proposed projects: https://github.com/linux-netdev/foundation The README page provides more information about the scope, and the process. We don't want to repeat all that information - please refer to the README and feel free to comment or ask any questions here. And please feel free to suggest projects! - netdev foundation TSC
