ORGANIZATION / SPONSORSHIP
Support shared development.
Production teams and companies can prepare a proposal describing the work they want to sustain and the recognition they prefer. Arrangements need confirmation before a sponsor is listed.

Bring what you know.
Offer a test session, equipment access, documentation, translation or infrastructure help. Describe the contribution and the production need it serves.
Prepare a contribution draft ↗Proposal drafts stay in your browser and can be exported. They are not sent to SHOWAVE or treated as confirmed support. Use the Community category for a support proposal.

Decisions follow the work.
Contributors and maintainers shape priorities through discussion, review and testing. Funding may help deliver that work, but it does not buy control of the roadmap.
Read the working model ↗RECOGNITION
Give credit with consent.
Verified sponsors may be recognized publicly when the arrangement and identity are approved. Anonymous support is welcome. Recognition is not a product endorsement.

Support, without ownership.
Donations and sponsorship are support for shared development. They do not provide equity, guaranteed financial returns or priority over the contribution review process.
