(Not that I mind the foundation funding some "competing" web-site to cover the conference, as we target very different demographics, but based upon my professional accounting experience I'm not sure it's legal for a 501(c)3 to do so in the US for sponsoring media, especially when any coverage is behind a pay wall.) At the end of the day I also personally just believe in capitalism and not being subsidized by other organizations to provide coverage, hence why I went this year without covering XDC in person and not trying to pursue any subsidization. ололол бутхурт
