_hc | I wanted to bring up the topic of the opencollective money | 12:09:51 |
_hc | we've had it for a while now, it seems we should spend some of it | 12:10:10 |
_hc | I think licaon-kter needs money, and has been doing a lot on fdroiddata. maybe we could work out some kind of payment scheme for fdroiddata work | 12:10:56 |
jochensp | I'm fine with supporting F-Droid contributors with money but I would not agree with a direct payment scheme (cf. Debians experience with such sings) | 12:23:37 |
_hc | how so? | 12:24:46 |
_hc | what do you propose instead? | 12:24:58 |
jochensp | _hc: referring to the Debian dunk tank story | 12:37:36 |
jochensp | not sure about a better way, the ELTS and Freexian schemes seem to work | 12:41:16 |
cdesai | I wasn't aware about any of that, however after looking it up, wouldn't a Freexian scheme be complicated to implement? | 12:44:48 |
cdesai | I think there's a difference between specifically collecting money for somebody vs paying out already collected generic f-droid donations | 12:45:19 |
jochensp | depends on the purpose the money was given for, I think | 12:46:32 |
jochensp | (will drop from the discussion for now because of $dayjob) | 12:46:55 |
cdesai | https://opencollective.com/f-droid#section-about that is already mentioned here | 12:47:43 |
_hc | how about we move this discussion to be more async on the forum? | 12:52:00 |
cdesai | +1 | 12:54:58 |
cdesai | Another thing that could be relevant are bounties, can discuss more on the forum | 12:55:57 |
@freenode_wb9688:matrix.org | (And NOT using Bountysource) | 13:24:41 |
cdesai | wb9688: I just meant the concept in general. | 13:42:06 |
@freenode_wb9688:matrix.org | I know, I was just mentioning that imho you shouldn't use Bountysource if you want to do bounties | 13:44:02 |

| izzy joined the room. | 08:11:36 |
izzy | just to let you know: I'm AFK for the next 10 days, will be back on August 17/18. | 08:11:37 |
_hc | enjoy! I will also be largely AFK for the next 10 days, but not entirely | 09:21:35 |
_hc | kitsunyan: if you change the API entrypoint to packages I'd merge your JSON API now. I know packages is not a great term, but it is the one we have. I think its important to reuse the names we have rather than introducing a new, not great name. | 13:22:59 |
_hc | e.g. apps or applications | 13:23:24 |
kitsunyan | Hi! I saw your reply, but didn't have time for it. | 13:24:09 |
kitsunyan | I'm fine with changing to "packages". | 13:24:32 |
_hc | have any time to update your merge request? | 13:24:53 |
kitsunyan | Yes. | 13:26:37 |
kitsunyan | Let me see. | 13:26:41 |
kitsunyan | Done. | 13:31:53 |
