Sick of the lack of leadership in our community, and lamenting the demise of efforts like the Civic Innovation Lab, David Akers, Seth Briskin & Dick Clough decided to take matters into their own hands.
They’re creating a giving circle of like minded engaged citizens looking to make decisions quickly and kick off small ideas with start-up funding.
The guidelines for the nascent Fedora Network are still coalescing, but it goes something like this: put in $1099 of your own money (not from corporations or foundations), $99 for overhead and $1000 of which goes to fund a number of cool projects that benefit the community.
