this is such a great initiative but I fear this may get exploited without proper structure.

Yeah, I don't really want to subsidize people to work on open-source shitcoins for example. The devil is in the details here.

I think that the problem is that "open source" in itself is not volunteering.

Just like "masonry" is not volunteering, even though a mason could volunteer by building an orphanage pro bono. But when they build their own house, it's not volunteering.

I don't even think that being paid for building an orphanage counts as volunteering... does it?
