Current status: continuing as expected

Near-term sustainability

In-kind model seems to work.
- Staff take time of their work for the greater good.
- Open-source licenses are the working tool.
- Small working percentages a problem for focus.
This can almost surely continue after the project ends.
Gitlab??
Coordination will be a challenge, though.

Longer-term sustainability

Non-profit association to manage money from diverse sources
Partners can pay some instead of dedicating own staff
Fewer staff can dedicate more time
Also opens up possibility of dedicated training for the general public.
Significant unknowns and risks here.
