NLnet has been sponsoring large blocks of Servo development as well. Filter with 'servo' in the list here: https://nlnet.nl/project/

As someone who had their first internet connection through NLnet in the 90s (later UUnet I think?), I’m so pleasantly surprised the impact that the organization has for open source projects globally.

The more I actually look at projects I care about the more and more I'm noticing just how extensive their support is. I wish more governments and philanthropists would do like them.

I didn't know about this but of NLnet history. I assumed you had been mistaken so I looked it up. That's really cool!

Yes, it's absolutely true. We used to provide internet connectivity and fund open source projects with the profits. Now we fund open source projects as a service and from donations.

We helped organizing the prize. BlueHats are civil servants who promote free and open source in public institutions. French BlueHats wanted to place FOSS maintainers in the spotlight because, as is well known, too few resources go that way. So they partnered with us to organize the prize together.

Thanks for creating an account just to answer my question! Appreciated. And welcome to the dark side, although I hear HN does not have too many cookies :-)
