  • I created a basic NGI Team page
  • I added the Summer of Nix to the footer so people can find it more easily

Thanks a lot for setting this up! I made suggestions to remove the text parts which are only ephemeral so we don't have to update this page too often.

updated regularly until mid 2027. To further increase transparency and accountability, we aim to make the state of completion, average cost of deliverables, and other metrics accessible at any time.

We can’t do all of that on our own and have to be more than just a bit clever about it. Some applications are already packaged but not yet discoverable as such or not complete, others require different approaches completely: enabling their authors to wield the power of Nix to do it themselves, and rewarding volunteer contributors for helping out.

As a side effect, we intend our work to benefit all contributors to NixOS by improving tools and simplifying processes as we go.

## Background

[NGI Zero](https://www.ngi.eu/ngi-projects/ngi-zero/) is a consortium advancing open technology commons, funded by the European Commission’s [Next Generation Internet](https://ngi.eu/) initiative that channels resources into free and open source software projects. While EU funding is often associated with building physical infrastructure like roads and bridges, it also plays a critical role in filling gaps in digital infrastructure, such as supporting the development of foundational free and open source software.
