[FFmpeg-devel] Update on your FLOSS/fund application

[FLOSS Fund via ffmpeg-devel <ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org>]

Dear *FFmpeg*

We are pleased to inform you that *FFmpeg* is being awarded *100,000 USD*
by FLOSS/fund to support its continued development. We deeply appreciate
the work you do and its impact, and are happy to be a small part of
something that all of us derive immense value from.

You can read more about our second tranche, learnings from this year, and
future plans on our anniversary blog post
<https://floss.fund/blog/second-tranche-2025-anniversary/>. Please find the
list of projects that we supported in the first year here
<https://floss.fund/projects/2025/>. From our experience with the previous
tranche, we anticipate taking anywhere between 1-3 months to complete the
disbursal process owing to complexities in cross-border payments and
paperwork. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause and
appreciate your patience as we work through the process.

The payment will be made out of India, where we are headquartered. The
following modes of payment are available:

   - *Wire Transfer*: Please note that as per Indian regulations, we will
   require digitally signed copies of a few documents, like Tax Residency
   Certificate, Project Development Agreement, an invoice, etc. We’ll share
   detailed instructions and copies of the documents required if you opt for a
   wire transfer.
   - *GitHub Sponsors*: If you prefer to receive sponsorship via the GitHub
   Sponsors Program, please ensure that the project is enabled for one-time
   sponsorships. We are currently in discussions with the GitHub team to
   streamline this process, and we will keep you posted about the progress.
   You can read about this in our anniversary blog post
   <https://floss.fund/blog/second-tranche-2025-anniversary/>.

Kindly let us know your preferred mode of payment by replying to this
e-mail.

*Public announcements*

If you have a public communications channel or a mailing list, we kindly
request you to consider an announcement of FLOSS/fund’s support with a link
to the floss.fund website. We are relying on word-of-mouth and referrals to
enable projects in the FOSS ecosystem to discover the fund and apply. Here
<https://floss.fund/faq/#what-is-expected-from-a-project-that-receives-funding>
are embeddable badges, in case you would like to add one to your project's
website.

 If you have any questions, please feel free to write to us.

Thank you.
