This file records voluntary project acknowledgements and support that helped make Provenant possible. It is distinct from NOTICE, which preserves required upstream attribution and licensing notices for included ScanCode-derived materials.
A substantial portion of Provenant's development has been carried out by contributors working on the project as employees of TNG Technology Consulting GmbH.
We want to explicitly acknowledge the major role of TNG in making this project possible. TNG has supported Provenant through:
- paid contributor time
- compute and inference resources provided by TNG's internal GPU cluster, Skainet
- company-funded usage of third-party AI models used during development
A substantial portion of Provenant has been developed with that support, and additional work has been contributed personally outside paid time. Without TNG's financial and infrastructure support, Provenant would not have been possible in its current scope and form.
For preserved legal attribution and licensing details for included ScanCode-derived materials, see NOTICE.
We are also grateful to nexB Inc. and the AboutCode community for the reference implementation, domain expertise, and curated license and rule data that Provenant continues to rely on.
