Clarify abstract to grants table. What is a breach of terms about general-grants-program HOT 6 CLOSED

Thanks for your interest in the grants accepted list. Currently the list doesn’t list teams as terminated that simply decided to stop working on a project. We only list terminations that “happened due to a breach of the terms of the grants programs”. Most of the time the reason for the termination was that these teams used code without proper attribution.

If you want to learn more about the evaluations, I recommend to take a look at the evaluations folder as well as the corresponding PRs to the delivery repo. However this includes only open grants, since it’s only a requirement for them to submit the delivery publicly.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I wrote to one i was interested in because i know some of the developer and he said he was not terminated because of this but because they didnt have a monetization model and ran out funds to complete milestones on time. "Most of the time the reason for the termination was that these teams used code without proper attribution." does not apply to all and this should be clarified I can ask him to respond to here

@polkastar in that case the grant shouldn't be listed as terminated. It's possible that a team that was simply delayed, or stopped working on the grant voluntarily, was marked as terminated by mistake. If the team wants to answer here we'll make sure to look into the matter and amend the list if needed.

Ok i ask him. He said it was terminated but because of late and not needed milestones by foundation. Does this count or not? I can ask to response from him

It would make it a lot easier if you could tell us which team you are referring to and we will look into it. Again, the list officially only lists terminations that happened due to a breach of the terms of the grants programs. Let us know in case you think a team is listed here as terminated for the wrong reason.

In case you were referring to the speckle os grant, I just updated just updated the list: https://github.com/w3f/Open-Grants-Program/blob/deprecate-general-grants/src/accepted_grant_applications.md This was indeed a mistake from us. I’m sorry for this and thanks a lot for bringing this to our attention. I’m closing the issue. Let me know in case you were referring to a different grant.
