-# Funding
-
-If you use REST framework commercially we strongly encourage you to invest in its continued development by signing up for a paid plan.
-
-**We believe that collaboratively funded software can offer outstanding returns on investment, by encouraging our users to collectively share the cost of development.**
-
-Signing up for a paid plan will:
-
-* Directly contribute to faster releases, more features, and higher quality software.
-* Allow more time to be invested in keeping the package up to date.
-* Safeguard the future development of REST framework.
-
-REST framework continues to be open-source and permissively licensed, but we firmly believe it is in the commercial best-interest for users of the project to invest in its ongoing development.
-
----
-
-## What funding has enabled so far
-
-* The [3.4](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.4-announcement/) and [3.5](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.5-announcement/) releases, including schema generation for both Swagger and RAML, a Python client library, a Command Line client, and addressing of a large number of outstanding issues.
-* The [3.6](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.6-announcement/) release, including JavaScript client library, and API documentation, complete with auto-generated code samples.
-* The [3.7 release](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.7-announcement/), made possible due to our collaborative funding model, focuses on improvements to schema generation and the interactive API documentation.
-* The recent [3.8 release](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/community/3.8-announcement/).
-* Tom Christie, the creator of Django REST framework, working on the project full-time.
-* Around 80-90 issues and pull requests closed per month since Tom Christie started working on the project full-time.
-* A community & operations manager position part-time for 4 months, helping mature the business and grow sponsorship.
-* Contracting development time for the work on the JavaScript client library and API documentation tooling.

-## What our sponsors and users say
-
-> As a developer, Django REST framework feels like an obvious and natural extension to all the great things that make up Django and it's community. Getting started is easy while providing simple abstractions which makes it flexible and customizable. Contributing and supporting Django REST framework helps ensure its future and one way or another it also helps Django, and the Python ecosystem.
->
-> &mdash; José Padilla, Django REST framework contributor
-
-&nbsp;
-
-> The number one feature of the Python programming language is its community. Such a community is only possible because of the Open Source nature of the language and all the culture that comes from it. Building great Open Source projects require great minds. Given that, we at Vinta are not only proud to sponsor the team behind DRF but we also recognize the ROI that comes from it.
->
-> &mdash; Filipe Ximenes, Vinta Software
-
-&nbsp;
-
-> It's really awesome that this project continues to endure. The code base is top notch and the maintainers are committed to the highest level of quality.
-DRF is one of the core reasons why Django is top choice among web frameworks today. In my opinion, it sets the standard for rest frameworks for the development community at large.
->
-> &mdash; Andrew Conti, Django REST framework user
-
-Sign up for a paid plan today, and help ensure that REST framework becomes a sustainable, full-time funded project.

-
-## Individual plan
-
-This subscription is recommended for individuals with an interest in seeing REST framework continue to&nbsp;improve.
