    Here is a list of funded projects:

    https://nlnet.nl/project

    If anybody wants to look depper into their claim of “proven success”.

    I browsed through it shallowly and didn’t find any project that I know/use, nor were the projects which I have randomly clicked on any interesting, when they had a working, usable result at all and not just designs or proof of concepts.

    I know it sounds cynical, but I honestly don’t mean it negatively. I just wanted to look a bit into it because their claims seemed without substance to me.

    But as I said I only looked at it very shallowly so far.

    What a disappointment. The value of OSS should be obvious to all by now. We have too many people in power who don’t know anything about the technology they regulate.
