I just read a summary of a new publication about using prizes to
encourage innovation, which can be read at
http://lists.essential.org/pipermail/random-bits/2008-March/001458.html
with links to the full paper.
I don't know whether it's still the case, but the AFFS grants were
a bit stumbling in the dark when I was involved and I'm aware that
UKFSN no longer funds it. The publication is a survey, so doesn't
draw conclusions, but can anyone spot handy tips for free software
grant-making success among them?
Other questions:
- are the AFFS grants still running?
- is anyone still paying AFFS? (I've not been asked for money for ages.)
- are there other grant programmes there you might go for?
Regards,
