Hey
I wanted to flag the fact that Knight / Mozilla / Ford currently have a $2.75M challenge open for tech, educational and policy ideas that will keep the web open trustworthy and free.
I thought of you as someone who might have ideas to submit -- or might know of people have ideas. So I wanted to flag this for you.
The submission deadline is
March 18th. Anyone can submit. Details are below.
If you want advice or input, I've copied my colleague Dave Steer who is working closely w/ Knight on the challenge.
Cheers - MS
