LibreTime is moving fiscal sponsors
Published on May 19, 2024 by Kyle Robbertze

UPDATE: we have migrated to the Open Source Collective, things should continue as before for donors and contributors. Thank you for your patience.

Unfortunately the Open Collective Foundation (the fiscal sponsor LibreTime uses to manage funds donated via the Open Collective platform) is closing down. More information can be found at https://opencollective.com/foundation/updates/announcement-we-are-dissolving-open-collective-foundation-at-the-end-of-this-year. In order for LibreTime to continue accepting donations, we are moving to Open Collective Europe as our fiscal sponsor. This page isn't going to change, but there may be some disruption during the migration. We thank you all for your continued support and hope to see you on the other side!

Hey Kyle - Guess I haven't visited the collective in awhile, but I have been aware of the Open Collective Foundation dissolution since two of my collectives were affected (including one you're part of! https://opencollective.com/openproducer).

Hasn't LibreTime used https://opencollective.com/opensource (set up specifically for Open Source projects) as the fiscal sponsor the entire time? If yes, I'm not sure why you'd need to switch since they're a different entity from OCF and were not affected.

OSC's announcement from around that time might further clarify -

We were using OCF, but it looks like we have been migrated to OSC over the last few months. So the migration is complete and things should continue as before now
