 <p><strong>We pay people to work on FOSS.</strong> In 2018, our member projects paid 104 different people for FOSS contributions. Collectively, our projects, including Buildbot, Godot, LibreHealth Outreachy, phpMyAdmin, Selenium and Sugar, paid contributors over $557,887 for everything from project organization to software development to translation. In all these cases, Conservancy handles most of the administration, including contract negotiation, legal compliance, work review, payments, and tax reporting.</p>

 <p>We helped Clojars establish the Clojurists Together grant program, pooling together $38,755 from 184 donors. The program has already funded 6 grants totaling $27,000.</p>
 <p><strong>We help run FOSS conferences.</strong> We helped our projects run 7 conferences and 3 hackfests&mdash;negotiating and spending thousands of dollars to make each of these conferences a success. Our experience with vendors, hotels and travel visas helps streamline much of the routine work so our projects can get back to doing what they&rsquo;re good at.  We reimbursed $98,803 in travel and other conference expenses to 91 different individuals.  Regular face-to-face collaboration remains essential for projects like ours that do nearly all their work remotely; these events and funding make that possible.</p>

 <p>Many organizations do work like this occasionally, or for a few specific projects.  For us, it’s the core of what we do, and we do it for projects of all sizes.  That experience helps us do it more efficiently, and do it better for everyone.  Lessons we learn working on one project benefit all of our members.  We also follow IRS rules and other important policies to ensure that reasonable amounts are spent on these activities.</p>
 <h3>Supporting new projects</h3>
+<h3 id="new-projects">Supporting new projects</h3>
 <p>We are constantly talking to free software projects about joining Conservancy, and 2018 has been an exciting year for new members. Some projects that have joined us recently are tools that help developers build more free software: Reproducible Builds, Racket, Xapian and Common Workflow Language. Others are working to share free software with new people and folks who aren&rsquo;t primarily developers, like Backdrop CMS, Houdini and MicroBlocks. Free software needs all kinds of projects and so we&rsquo;re happy to help them all grow to the next level that’s right for each.</p>

 <p>If you attended a FOSS conference in 2018, odds are you saw Conservancy there.  Over the year we’ve spoken or  presented at almost 30 conferences around the world, delivering 8 keynotes.  We talk about a range of important issues, including copyleft compliance, outreach to underrepresented people, FOSS in regulated devices like medical devices and automobiles, and the risks of too much corporate control over our projects and communities.</p>
