Sourceware: Funding the core toolchain infrastructure
Mark Wielaard reports on the success of the Sourceware fundraiser, which has garnered approximately $12,000 in its first quarter. This funding, a mix of individual donations and corporate sponsorships, covers two-thirds of the budget for 2026/2027. The initiative aims to secure ongoing financial support for the core toolchain infrastructure.
