Great idea!
There's a couple of more projects we contribute to IMHO - at least mlmmj comes to mind (where we did PyMIME and provided translations). https://github.com/tdf might have more projects we contributed code to.

There's work going on with Pootle as well, and some (although agreeably very few) translations for the Redmine issue history plugin.

Feedback from the community so far:

• "TDF has funded some updates on Askbot"
• "We contributed to CppUnit to the point of taking it over/forking it"
• "Gerrit. I think David Ostrovsky is even a gerrit's upstream member"
• "Support contracts exist with AskBot, Pootle, Plone"

So I have some things to investigate, but I need to find out more details before turning this into something we can promote...

Can you reach out to Guilhem and also check our ledgers/annual reports? I think with this we can come up with a decent list we can extend later on, of course

This ticket has been open for a while and I don't want to bump it, so I'll work on it early next week and do my best to get it finished before the Christmas break.

Going through the Annual Reports for 2016, 2015 and 2014, the only details I can find are in 2014 which says money was spent on:

Pootle translation memory, concordance and performance improvements

Similarly, I've gone through all of the ledgers and the only piece of info relating to work on other FOSS projects is:

Pootle (Maintenance/Care/Software)

But that might just be a support contract rather than new features. I've reached out to Guilhem but I think many of the things mentioned happened before he joined. I'll also ask Sophie in case she knows more about Pootle and AskBot. I'd just like to find, say, four simple things to put into a "How TDF helps other projects" infographic, like:

• Performance improvements to Pootle
• X in Y

...and so on. But there's simply very little info out there, despite all the searches and asking around I've been doing, so I think I'm reaching a dead end here, sadly...

A few more updates: according to #1473, completed features in Pootle from TDF funding are:

[Complete: notification framework nice to have outstanding] Improve suggestion feedback
[Complete] Uploading strings from files should indicate changes

And for AskBot, according to #414, completed features in AskBot from TDF funding include:

per-language related questions
better facility to deal with the duplicates
karma per localization
make user status separate for each localized instance

AFAIK, those are the two projects which TDF directly funded. Otherwise we can also point out:

• https://github.com/awerner/pymime -- developed for mljmm by a LibreOffice community member
• mljmm -- we did translations, as Florian mentioned
• I reached out to David Ostrovsky, who linked me to this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/repo-discuss/x18vy2iygp8/discussion -- so a LibreOffice contributor is also an upstream developer in Gerrit, doing reviews and filing bugs

Those are five things to go on, so even though it'd be good to have more details, this may be enough to make an infographic. Will work on it this week.

Looks great!

Kendy (who I've been working with on this) is happy with the latest design, so if there are no other objections I'll post and promote it later this week.
