Probably aimed at Sumer: What is the business model for open source software? How is the initial development funded? is it crowd sourced? My understanding is that the eventual payoff for those contributors and the hosts of open source software is not only in reputation (social equity) but also in getting hired as consultants/employees or founding startups that are venture-funded.

@Dennis, along with those components of OSS business models, there are many software projects where commercial businesses pay their own software developers to work on a project, where they need the ecosystem and systems that are being built, but they don't need it to be a competitive advantage.

The RFP (https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2023/nsf23556/nsf23556.htm) also contains very specific language around what they do an do not fund, what they are looking for etc.
We usually also start with a close reading of the RFP and follow a very similar process to what @Edward shared :)

Here is a catechism format that we wrote, for approaching grants https://coda.io/d/Catechism-DB_dDI977il1RE/Catechisms_sumC5#Catechisms_tuH9R/r5&view=modal That may be a helpful starting point for people looking for a template to approach this or any grAnt.
