Funding page is missing

[stefanv]

We promised to have a funding page in https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0046-sponsorship-guidelines.html

Good point - yes we need to add this.

[InessaPawson]

I'm happy to write up the first draft.

[asmijafar20]

Is this issue still up? Please let me know, I would love to work on this.

[InessaPawson]

@asmijafar20 Thank you for offering your help! However, this particular task is best suited for someone who has been involved with the project for a while and is well aware of the subject of the future article. It’s been on my to-do list for some time. Your inquiry has given me a gentle nudge.:) I’ll try to submit the draft in the coming days.

Let me know what type of contributions to NumPy you are looking to make, I am happy to direct you to something that is a better fit.

[asmijafar20]

Ah Alright.
Hey @InessaPawson, I'm new to NumPy so, I wanted to start with good first issues to get myself familiar with the codebase. Previously I have been an Outreachy'21 intern and contributed to Moja Global Community. I'm happy to contribute to NumPy. Thanks!

@asmijafar20 Wonderful! Have a look at the issues in the issue tracker (https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues) that are up to 12 months old, and see if there is anything you would like to work on. The ones labeled “documentation” and “bug” would be the best place to start.
With bugs, reproducing a bug and documenting it in a comment below the issue would already be of tremendous help.

Once you decide what you’d like to focus on, I recommend first reading the NumPy Contributing Guidelines (https://numpy.org/doc/stable/dev/index.html) and watching the videos created by our team to assist new NumPy contributors: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCK6zCrcN3GXBUUzDr9L4__LnXZVtaIzS. This should help you to understand the workflow and hopefully answer most of your questions about contributing to NumPy.

If you run into any issues or have questions related to the task you are working on, please post your message in the comments section and tag me in it.

[asmijafar20]

Thanks, @InessaPawson. I will definitely look into it.

I think the implementation tasks of NEP 46 have not all been fulfilled:

Add a section with small logos towards the bottom of the numpy.org website

This has not been done. Is the intention to add logos to the footer (for all pages) or just to the front page?

Create a full list of historical and current support and deploy it to https://numpy.org/funding

That page has not been created yet

Update the NumPy governance document for changes to Institutional Partner eligibility requirements and benefits.

I think this is complete

Update https://numpy.org/about with details on how to get in touch with the NumPy project about sponsorship related matters (see next section)

The donate section needs updating with the details in the NEP.

We should also mention opencollective somewhere and the interaction between opencollective and numfocus

The tasks in the comment above still need to be fulfilled.
