<blockquote>
<p>As a direct result of <a href="../mozilla-grant/">a successful Mozilla grant application</a>, I will be leaving my current role at <a href="http://www.dabapps.com">DabApps</a>, and attempting to secure a sustainable business model for REST framework development. I need your help in order to make this work.</p>
<p>&mdash; Tom Christie</p>
</blockquote>
<p>If you use REST framework commercially we strongly encourage you to invest in its continued development by signing up for a paid plan.</p>
<p><strong>We believe that collaboratively funded software can offer outstanding returns on investment, by encouraging our users to collectively share the cost of development.</strong></p>
<p>Signing up for a paid plan will:</p>
<ul>
<li>Directly contribute to faster releases, more features, and higher quality software.</li>
<li>Allow more time to be invested in documentation, issue triage, and community support.</li>
<li>Safeguard the future development of REST framework.</li>
</ul>
<p>REST framework continues to be open-source and permissively licensed, but we firmly believe it is in the commercial best-interest for users of the project to invest in its ongoing development.</p>
<hr />
<h2 id="making-the-business-case"><a class="toclink" href="#making-the-business-case">Making the business case</a></h2>
<p>Our <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tomchristie/django-rest-framework-3">successful Kickstarter campaign</a> demonstrates the impressive cost-reward ratio of shared funding of open-source software.</p>
<p>With <em>typical corporate fundings of just £100-£1000 per organization</em> we successfully delivered:</p>
<ul>
<li>The comprehensive serializer redesign, and <strong>version 3.0 release</strong>.</li>
<li>Ongoing triage and community support, <strong>closing over 1600 tickets</strong>.</li>
<li>Substantial improvements to the Browsable API.</li>
<li>The admin interface.</li>
<li>A new pagination API including offset/limit and cursor pagination implementations, plus on-page controls.</li>
<li>A versioning API, including URL-based and header-based versioning schemes.</li>
<li>Support for customizable exception handling.</li>
<li>Support for Django's PostgreSQL HStoreField, ArrayField and JSONField.</li>
<li>Templated HTML form support, including HTML forms with nested list and objects.</li>
<li>Internationalization support for API responses, currently with 27 languages.</li>
<li>The metadata APIs for handling <code>OPTIONS</code> requests and schema endpoints.</li>
<li>Numerous minor improvements and better quality throughout the codebase.</li>
</ul>
<p>This incredible level of return on investment is <em>only possible through collaboratively funded models</em>, which is why we believe that supporting our paid plans is in everyone's best interest.</p>
<p>Sign up for a paid plan today, and help ensure that REST framework becomes a sustainable, full-time funded project.</p>

<p>In order to ensure that I can be fully focused on trying to secure a sustainable
&amp; well-funded open source business I will be leaving my current role at <a href="http://www.dabapps.com">DabApps</a>
at the end of May 2016.</p>
<p>I have formed a UK limited company, <a href="http://www.encode.io">Encode</a>, which will
act as the business entity behind REST framework. I will be issuing monthly reports
from Encode on progress both towards the <a href="../mozilla-grant/">Mozilla grant</a>, and for development time
funded via the REST framework paid plans.</p>
