* **Request resource support** - projects that request resource (soft-cost) support, such as access to technical expertise or collaboration opportunities. These encompass a wide spectrum, from educational platforms to initiatives promoting open-source adoption of memory safeness.

A project can submit its support request through the SIG repository issues (TODO: add issue template) and project members are welcome to join the SIG bi-weekly calls to present their work and support request.

discussed in the last SIG call:
should this topic be managed at a SIG level, or a WG or even foundation level? it wouldn't change that much if it was a Security Tooling or BEST WGs project, for instance?

From a TAC/Foundation perspective, we're working out a funding model and processes to potentially routing resources to petitioners seeking assistance. Details are all still "TBD", and as they solidify there will be a clearly documented process, criteria for consideration, and a business case template to help capture key data so that the GB can make a funding decision. I think the words here are fine for now, but will need updated as that process solidifies. It may be a good idea to start documented desirable criteria for MemSafe efforts, since we absolutely know this is a key concern within the industry and with government bodies. I expect this little group will be getting a lot of attention in the coming year, and planning up front here will make our duties simpler as things get moving.
