would be a mistake to state there will be no costs, because clearly we have huge expenses, your server hardware
|
||||
will have a price tag and then maybe you'd like to have some extra features that need to be developed.
|
||||
|
||||
It's fair to say that users with basic needs will have no monthly costs. We were also way more effective
|
||||
per dollar than investor-backed startups and learned a lot on top of it.
|
||||
An earlier version of this document contained a rough number, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter.
|

|
||||
Most established OSS companies make the bulk of their revenue with enterprise customers, that's why private users
|
||||
and single developers typically get everything for free. Obviously that doesn't work if you have only private users
|
||||
that refuse to share their data on top of it.
|
||||
|
||||
Looking forward, specific solutions for funding development and maintenance could be to...
|
||||
|
||||
- provide additional benefits to our sponsors
|
||||
- sell a tested & supported version in the app store while our contributors and other developers can
|
||||
continue to use Docker or build from source
|
||||
- develop a one-click solution for private cloud hosting together with selected providers we trust
|
||||
- offer a geodata, public events, and maps subscription since OpenStreetMap doesn't want us to use their development
|
||||
API for production, which is perfectly fine
