digitalmars.D - Ideas for a "prototype" project? Germany provides funding
You might have heard about the funding project from Germany. https://prototypefund.de/ https://okfn.de/en/projekte/prototypefund/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12200777 discussion The basic idea: 30k€ over six months to develop an open source prototype Condition is that you have your primary residence in Germany. Since we have some germans in our community this might be interesting. It reminds me of the Google Summer of Code. You need to have a project idea. The topics are digital tools for citizens, data literacy, data security, software infrastructure.

For a start we need to convince them that the proposed project has an immense effect as in it "will make the world a better place". So projects that will have a huge user base like e.g. Ilya's generic Blas qualify for this. Has anyone better ideas?
