# MediaGoblin $10k Matching Grant

Congratulations to MediaGoblin for not only [meeting the $10k matching grant
from a generous anonymous donor][0], but also for raising $36k to date.

[MediaGoblin][1] is a "free software media publishing platform that anyone can
run"; it is a distributed, free (as in freedom) alternative to services such as
YouTube, Flickr and others, and is part of the [GNU project][2].

Convert posts to markdown files This was considerable effort, and took a bit more time than I had hoped. While newer posts were written with Markdown, previous ones were writen with my own Markdown-like formatting, but they had enough differences that it was quite an effort to get things updated. I also checked the HTML output of each, though I didn't read every article in detail. Some of these were more substantial than others; National Uproar, for example. These conversions were markup translations: the actual text remains unchanged, except in one minor instance to add text for the sake of providing some text to hold a link to a quote. Any changes to post text will happen in future commits so that the diffs are clearly visible. 2018-12-17 23:31:08 -05:00			`# MediaGoblin $10k Matching Grant`
