The future of TNUC

ElPumpo opened this issue · comments

Hi all. Thanks for using my tool.

I today am announcing that I am unsure of the future of this project. It became bigger than what I thought it would.

This open source project has never had any funding. It has consisted of my free time, which of I have none anymore I want to spend developing this project.

Perhaps if this project recieved funding, such as donations I can hire a developer to work on it.. but I am unsure of how many would be willing to donate to keep this project alive in the long term. It would be sad to just discontinue/archive it.

If you perhaps are willing to become a contributer for this project, if so contact me on Discord,

Thanks

Hello @ElPumpo

Firstly, great job with TNUC! I really liked the idea, and it has really helped me with the drivers. I actually working on my own version of TNUC, currently I haven't made the repo public since it is not done yet because just like you, I work on this project on my spare time.

Hi @fahminlb33. Thank you for the complements. But it doesn't really add to this conversation

Asking randoms is probably not the bestest idea, idk who to ask too, but maybe ask leaders in big FOSS githubs like Blender and Godot, Armory3D, upbge, OBS Studio, if you're lucky, maybe there's a page somewhere that lists the github page that sorts githubs from one with the most contributors to the least or something.

If you want support maybe putting up a Boosty would help alleviate that goal.

@melnation-com Hi that's why I said whoever wants to 'join' the cause would initially be a contributor, not instantly the project owner. Code would be reviewed as PR's before they merge to master branch.

I've handled much bigger projects in the past, don't worry about me. It's a call to action for anyone who wants to join the team and less a discussion about the project's future.
