Result of the Budget Poll 2021

In 2021 we want to prioritise UX-driven improvements, to enable all of our users (developers, integrators, and editors).

Our second goal is to increase contribution and help communities outside of Central Europe. 13 ideas have been rolled into a collaborative project for TYPO3 communication, marketing, and Onboarding. All of these ideas overlapped with at least three others on one or more of these topics:

• Advertising
• Events
• Outreach
• Onboarding
• Entry-level education

We hope the project can take the TYPO3 Guidebook as a natural starting point and have allocated €78,500 to this project. We would like to see open-source deliverables with easy contribution and localization that can be reused world-wide. The project should also document how to use each deliverable, as well as the results achieved.

Mathias Bolt Lesniak (board) and Luisa Faßbender (Marketing Team) will manage the project, with high-level project management assistance from Open Strategy Partners. The idea submitters will be invited to a meeting, and more information about the structure and sub-projects will be published soon.
 

Below you will find the result of the Budget poll and the decision of the Board, for each budget:

* Budget awarded in percentage of the maximum requested sum (“approximate funds needed” in the idea submission form). If the sum was given as “€5,000–€10,000” and “75%” was awarded, the awarded sum is €10,000*0.75 = €7,500.

The Board will start a second budget poll in January, to rate ideas for improvements in TYPO3 CMS. For this pool, €150,000 are reserved in the Core Budget. 

Thank you for participating in our poll. If you are interested in our Board work or in the work of the Budget Committee, feel free to apply for a position in one of these bodies.
