Responding to @zeeg's open source donation topic, Vincent Koc highlights Pledging's commitment to donate $1 million to open source this year, with more than half going directly to individual open source developers.
Koc, a longtime GitHub sponsor of open source authors, endorses the model with a "put up or shut up" push for more ecosystem give-back.
