Open Source Venture Fund Unveiled
prostoalex writes "Over the next three years Simula Labs will finance 6-8 open source startups with $10-15 million it got from venture capitalists, News.com says. The venture financing enterprise is mostly interested in hiring the founders of the project and selling the services based around product infrastructure. LogicBlaze and Mergere are among the first startups who got financing from Simula Labs, and it looks like a logo that incorporates orange and brown is required before you apply."
Microsoft has applied for funding to start an open source project called "POSIE", an acronym for the term "Proof that Open Source Is Evil." Microsoft requires funding due to a lack of volunteers. When asked why he doesn't simply throw a mountain of cash at the project, Bill Gates replied, "I'm not going to contribute any money to something that is Clearly Evil and Wrong".
