If there is one thing that has become increasingly important in recent years, it is the funding of critical open-source projects that have long been part of our everyday lives. The Sovereign Tech Fund has set out to improve the situation by serving various programs that assist project maintainers. Daniel Stenberg shares his experiences with maintaining the curl project, that has also been supported by the Sovereign Tech Fund.
