The project maintains an Open Collective that is used to accept donations.
The funds are to be used for specific efforts as decided by the TSC and documented on this page.
The account is manged by the TSC. The user id and password are shared with TSC members through 1password.
Potential disbursements will be agreed through TSC discussion and before approval, documented in an PR in the TSC repository which adds the intended use and funding envelope to this page. The disbursement is considered approved if there's no objections from a project member in 72 hours, and consensus has been reached in the TSC. Objections can be overridden with a TSC vote.
Once work has been completed the recipient will open a request through open collective in the amout approved.
The Chair of the Technical Steering committee will then "push the required buttons" in the Open collective account to initiate the payout in accordance with the agreement reached in the TSC PR and if possible include a reference to the PR in the TSC repository adding the intended use and funding envelope to this page.
