[GRASS-PSC] Fwd: New NSF wide program: Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems NSF 22-572

[Michael Barton]

This is perhaps a unique funding opportunity for GRASS. I don't think I can (or should) be the lead on such a proposal because I will have maxed out my grant/proposal bandwidth by the due date. But anyone else in the US on the PSC could be the lead, and I'm happy to participate.

The goal of the new Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems (PEOSE) program is to harness the power of open-source development for the creation of new technology solutions to problems of national and societal importance. Many NSF-funded research projects result in publicly accessible, modifiable, and distributable open-sourced software, hardware or data platforms that catalyze further innovation. In some cases, an open-source product is widely adopted and forms the basis for a self-sustaining open-source ecosystem (OSE) comprises a distributed community of developers and a broad base of users across academia, industry and government. The goal of the PEOSE program is to fund new OSE managing organizations, each responsible for the creation and maintenance of infrastructure needed for efficient and secure operation of an OSE based around a specific open-source product or class of products. The early and intentional formation of such managing organizations is expected to ensure more secure open-source products, increased coordination of developer contributions, and a more focused route to impactful technologies. https://beta.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/pathways-enable-open-source-ecosystems-peose#:~:text=NSF%20is%20introducing%20a%20new,of%20national%20and%20societal%20importance<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://beta.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/pathways-enable-open-source-ecosystems-peose*:*:text=NSF*20is*20introducing*20a*20new,of*20national*20and*20societal*20importance__;I34lJSUlJSUlJQ!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!OGb4ImOjS0EScokXPDXSVBlyCvdUeKNGzkbYAqR3I0Sgc22K1ncb9_XOL2q--pF5GGc$>.

This solicitation (NSF 22-572<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2022/nsf22572/nsf22572.htm__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!OGb4ImOjS0EScokXPDXSVBlyCvdUeKNGzkbYAqR3I0Sgc22K1ncb9_XOL2q-P4wiV5I$>) seeks two types of proposals, allowing teams to (1) propose specific activities to scope the development of an OSE (Phase I), and (2) develop a sustainable OSE based on a mature open-source product that shows promise both in the ability to meet an emergent societal or national need and to build a community to help develop it (Phase II).

Phase I ($300K with durations of up to 1 year) Deadline Date - May 12 2022
Phase II ($1.5M with durations of up to 2 year) Deadline Date - October 21 2022

Be safe,
