Thank you to everyone who helps keep it running. + +Our funding platform is [GitHub Sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/quantcli). + +## What sponsorship means + +Sponsorship supports continued operation and provides an optional public +acknowledgement on this page. All tiers receive the same acknowledgement format. + +Sponsorship does not provide governance influence, roadmap input or priority, +contract or schema concessions, exclusive access, a support SLA, private support, +or product endorsement. This applies equally to individuals, companies, and +competing tool vendors. There are no private sponsorship terms or side agreements. +Funding does not determine technical decisions. + +## GitHub Sponsors + +The first roster reconciliation is pending. This page does not yet report sponsor +names, tier assignments, or an anonymous sponsor count. This is not a statement +that there are no sponsors. + +After verification against GitHub Sponsors records and Executive Director review, +public acknowledgements will use one alphabetical list across all tiers, with +each sponsor's chosen public name and tier name only. There are no logos or +differences in placement, text size, or emphasis by tier. + +Sponsors who choose not to be named will be counted together as `Anonymous (N)`. +Their identities and individual tier assignments will not be published. We will +not infer permission to name a sponsor from a payment record alone. + +## Updates and corrections + +This is the canonical sponsor acknowledgement page. Roster updates are checked +against GitHub Sponsors records and acknowledgement preferences, then reviewed +by the Executive Director before publication through a pull request. + +For a correction, open an issue in +[quantcli/common](https://github.com/quantcli/common/issues). Do not put private +sponsor identities or payment records in a public issue. A sponsor can change +their public or private sponsorship setting through GitHub Sponsors.
