Seven New Projects Selected to Strengthen the NGI Pilot Programmes
Each Pilot has a dedicated consortium working on it but part of its budget - kindly provided by the European Commission - is reserved for third party funding. Its intent is to provide useful apps, connecting a vibrant community of developers and users, with a focus on transparency, privacy, and security. OWASP blint had humble beginnings as a linter - a tool that analyses code for errors - but it soon found rapid adoption for a range of use cases such as malware identification, binary risk audits, and more recently binary SBOM generation. New on team Fediversity are two projects: Drupal, the free and open-source web content management system, will provide more comprehensive W3C ActivityPub support in Drupal. (It should not happen, but if you did apply to the October call and did not hear anything, do contact us.) Inspired? The NGI pilot programmes NGI Taler, NGI Fediversity and NGI Mobifree are possible with financial support from the European Commission's Next Generation Internet programme, under the aegis of DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology.
