Amazing list, thanks to the German taxpayers, and to Sonny and Tobias! Also amazing that they were able to find so many contractors.

Are there plans to apply for it again? Gnome got a lot of mileage from it, would be really nice if they applied again.

And what happened to Sonny Piers? Did more info come out about why he got suddenly expelled from the foundation? It looked like he was doing a really good job with STF and I haven't heard anything bad about him all this time.

As I’ve already announced internally, I’m stepping down from putting together an STF application for this year. For inquiries about the 2025 application, please contact @[email protected] going forward.
