Sponsorships will be distributed directly through GitHub Sponsors.
Proud to announce that @OpenAI is renewing and expanding support for maintainers of open-source projects used across the Astral and Codex toolchains.
Today, that starts with committing more than $160,000 in direct sponsorships through @GitHub Sponsors.
Many users praised OpenAI's $160k sponsorship of open-source maintainers for Astral and Codex as great work with more positive developments ahead.
Re-read the Astral OSS Fund blog posts in the build-up to today's announcement.
In Year 1, we planned to give $26,000 but ended up at $70,000 across open source, language foundations, and the pure-Rust zstd decompression work.
Very proud despite our inability to stay in-budget!
Open Source runs on maintainers!
at @OpenAI, we're committing $160,000 to sponsor the maintainers behind the Astral and Codex toolchains
This is alongside our ongoing $1M fund providing free Codex access to open source maintainers.
I’m incredibly stoked that this finally happened and as someone who owes his career to open source I’m excited to continue doubling down on this through the year!
Huge thank you @thsottiaux, @charliermarsh, @romainhuet and the codex team
Lots more to come on this front, stay tuned!

Relatedly: if you’re an open source maintainer, consider applying to Codex for Open Source, a $1M fund used that includes six months of ChatGPT Pro, API credits, and conditional Codex Security access.

Sponsorships should be live now via GitHub Sponsors, and include continued support for all projects previously included in Astral’s OSS Fund.
(If you were sponsored via the Astral org, you may see your sponsorship lapse as it transitions to OpenAI.)
As with the previous Astral OSS Fund, our goal is to thank, encourage, and empower maintainers, especially in the ecosystems closest to our work (Rust and Python).
These funds will go directly to maintainers via monthly sponsorships, on six or twelve month commitments.
