In this episode of the GitHub Podcast, Abby sits down with Felix Reda, Director of Developer Policy at GitHub, and Christian Grobmeier, a longtime Log4J maintainer, to reflect on the aftermath of the Log4Shell vulnerability and how it reshaped open source funding. They discuss the creation of Germany’s Sovereign Tech Fund, the challenges and opportunities funding brings to open source projects, and what it takes to build sustainable and resilient developer communities. The conversation highlights the major lessons learned from these events, from managing resources and community health to navigating government and industry support.
