The project has enabled GitHub sponsors in order to to accept sponsorships. Currently there is only a single one time tier which is called "sponsor" and one monthly tier which is called "monthly-sponsor" with no specific rewards.
The funds are to be used for specific efforts as decided by the TSC and documented on this page.
The account is manged by the TSC. The user id and password are shared with TSC members through 1password. All payments for sponsorships received will be made to the OpenJS Foundation who has agreed to manage the funds that are received on behalf of the project.
Potential disbursements will be agreed through TSC discussion and before approval, documented in a PR in the TSC repository which adds the intended use and funding envelope to this page. The disbursement is considered approved if there's no objections from a project member in 72 hours, and consensus has been reached in the TSC. Objections can be overridden with a TSC vote.
When work is complete for an approved disbursement, a request will be made by the TSC to the OpenJS foundation to pay the person chosen by the TSC to do the work.
