This is the third financial status report of the rust-analyzer project.

Since the https://rust-analyzer.github.io/blog/2020/08/20/financial-report.html[last update], we've set up a https://github.com/sponsors/rust-analyzer[GitHub Sponsors profile] in addition to the https://opencollective.com/rust-analyzer[OpenCollective]. You can support the project on whichever platform suits you best.

(side note: if your company would like to support rust-analyzer, but these platforms don't fit into your procurement process or are otherwise too hard to deal with, you can https://ferrous-systems.com/[contact Ferrous Systems] to figure out a solution)

== 2020-07-01 to 2021-02-28

In these 8 months, you've supported the project with approximately 32500€ on OpenCollective, and 6500€ on GitHub Sponsors.

Host share, payment processing, and bank account fees amounted to around 6000€, leaving us with 33000€.

We've paid 15000€ of that to rust-analyzer contributors, while the rest went towards funding my time on the project.

== 2021-03-01 to now

Since March, you've supported rust-analyzer with around 21000€ on OpenCollective and 6500€ on GitHub Sponsors, while the fees add up to around 1000€ so far.

We haven't yet completed the contributor payouts for this time frame and will update when they happen.

=== Hired contributor: https://github.com/Veykril[Lukas Wirth]

Your constant funding enabled us to hire https://github.com/Veykril[Lukas Wirth] as a working student! Lukas is being coached by Jonas.

=== Sponsor highlight: Kraken

We've also received a generous 50000€ grant from Kraken during this time. This enabled us to hire with confidence. You can read their announcement here https://blog.kraken.com/post/7964/oxidizing-kraken-improving-kraken-infrastructure-using-rust/[blog post]. Thank you, Kraken!

== Next Steps

In the coming months, we'll complete the next batch of contributor payouts.

Also, in order to clarify the separation between the rust-analyzer project, and the fundraising for the project, which is run by Ferrous Systems, future financial updates will be posted on the https://ferrous-systems.com/blog/[Ferrous Systems blog].
