82	82	** Economic Development initiatives
83	83	* A working group is proposed to be established to extend the Open Source Initiative's resources to create an international collaborative effort to create a network of policy practitioners for the purpose of sharing best practices, documentation, and general knowledge and support for individuals and organizations with an interest in or responsibility for creating and implementing effective policies. In phase one of the project, we will identify a network of the willing and informed and create a sustainable inventory of existing policies (implemented). Phase two will be defined by the group based on what is learned along the way as opportunity and challenge.

	91	+* **Description:** Snowdrift.coop is prototyping a new form of cooperative community sponsorship / long-term patronage for Open Source projects. While we hope long-term to operate as a full foundation handling donations between large numbers of donors and projects, this proposal is to support the prototyping stage. At this stage, we are focused on creating, presenting, and studying the concept of a network-driven many-to-many matching pledge as a mechanism to improve overall support for Open Source.

89	89	* **Description:** Based on the initial work researching an article, "The value of support in Open Source" ([[https:~~/~~/docs.google.com/document/d/1H7hY9tgA6M6mYIdCBVbqMMYNftpzddMy_MfB0faW7RU/edit?usp=sharing>>url:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1H7hY9tgA6M6mYIdCBVbqMMYNftpzddMy_MfB0faW7RU/edit?usp=sharing]]), it was proposed a repository allowing contributions of first-person accounts related to the value of support for open source would be beneficial. This resource could evolve to provide references and/or peers in identifying organizational, technical, developmental, etc. benefits; case studies on adoption, practice, etc.; material for promotion in OSI publications or at events.
