Small Technology Foundation funding application for NLnet Foundation NGI Zero Core seventh call
I’ve submitted a grant application for our work on the Small Web. I believe the process for allocating public funding should be transparent, so you can find our application, as well as the history of our funding attempts (TL;DR: we’ve never received a single cent of EU funding for our work), etc., in the post.

@aral Have you had a try to partner up with the open science people? These might have the consortia part already down and might make it feasible to get funding.

@mojala I really don’t need a consortium; I just need to be able to code :)
In any case, we’re close to launch of our own Domain instance on small-web.org which will, hopefully, in time, become self-sustaining.
Appreciate your caring and the suggestions :)

@aral Had a read. Applying for grants is infuriating, but this is the system and I see no way forward that would streamline or make Horizon applications faster or better for any party. That being said, depending on the funding instrument, an international consortium is usually a must. Second; only the application is read - none of the links, references etc are. So when asked about other projects, it’s usually a good idea to type them out.

@khleedril Will check it out :)

@aral I like your attitude. I haven't got past the approach of, “Please pay my rent and buy me a nice car,” and, no, I haven't managed to secure any funding either. https://rdmp.org/splat if you want to know.
