Quality Software Costs Money - Heartbleed Was Free: How to generate funding for FOSS
Open accessAbstract
The world runs on free and open-source software, FOSS for short, and to some degree it has predictably infiltrated just about any software-based product anywhere in the world.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In response to the costly OpenSSL bug, solutions emphasising different sustainabilities were proposed.
“As a response to the costly bug, solutions emphasising different sustainabilities were proposed.”
From The sustainability of open source commons (2023) · cites this paper as Kamp, 2014
The HOW TO FUND FOSS section (page unavailable) describes several funding approaches, and WHY FOSS NEEDS MONEY links sustained developer support to software quality after Heartbleed. The paper therefore supports the claim that responses to the bug were proposed, but it does not distinguish solutions emphasising different kinds of sustainability. (LLM, conf=0.79)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
