And I am sorry if it sounded like I am fishing for sponsorship. Not at all!

I am simply very much interested in the dynamics of the process. I would like to know how do people get together to discuss such things in the first place, for example.

Apologies if I projected the wrong message before.

Haha no worries you didn't project that. At least not to me. I just tought my response came across as if I was a big benefactor.

As for how I found the projects to engage in: I got asked for tech help, went to a meeting, and found people that had unusual takes on reality. I went with those who were doing stuff, as opposed to those discussing how it ought to be. I don't have much initiative myself and prefer working with people who have that drive.
