最新报道:According to the GitHub blog on July 23, open source software as digital infrastructure is vital to the economy and society, but its maintenance funds have long been insufficient. The GitHub Developer Policy Team commissioned Open Forum Europe, Fraunhofer ISI and the European University Institute to conduct a feasibility study to explore the expansion of the successful experience of the German sovereign technology agency to the EU level and promote the establishment of the "EU Sovereign Technology Fund" (EU-STF). The study recommends that the fund should focus on investing in open source dependencies, maintenance, security, improvements and ecosystem building, and proposes seven design criteria, including funding pools, low bureaucracy, political independence, flexible funding, community participation, strategic alignment and high transparency. GitHub calls on the EU to invest at least 350 million euros in the 2028-2035 budget and co-fund with industry and countries to ensure the sustainable development and digital sovereignty of open source software.
