Microsoft has teamed up with several tech giants to help the development of Chromium-based browsers. The Linux Foundation just launched "Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers," an initiative that helps fund open development of browsers built on Chromium. Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers also aims to "enhance projects within the Chromium ecosystem." The Linux Foundation shared the news this week and Microsoft posted a blog post as well.
According to the Linux Foundation, Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers will provide a neutral space for the open source community to collaborate. All current Chromium projects will remain under their current structure, but new projects made through Supporters of Chromium-Based Browsers will be under the Linux Foundation.
