Currently bootstrapping through consulting, so sponsorships would be a great help.",{"question":15,"response":16},"A small brief about your project","I maintain winkNLP—a dependency-free NLP library with ~2M downloads and a NASSCOM AI Game Changer award. Now we're building winkComposer: a low-code framework for real-time streaming analytics. Developers compose lightweight nodes via declarative APIs to build pipelines—from anomaly detection to condition monitoring—transforming continuous data streams into actionable insights with statistical methods, narrow AI, knowledge graphs, and LLM-driven reasoning. Enterprise-grade streaming intelligence that runs anywhere from cloud to Raspberry Pi.",{"question":18,"response":19},"One FOSS maintainer lesson for your younger self","Embrace openness, uphold rigorous standards, and trust the community. High standards aren't barriers; they inspire trust and attract contributors who share your values.

Why do you bother maintaining a FOSS project?","It's all about freedom with responsibility. My builder instinct thrives in the freedom to create transparent solutions, while my maintainer mindset embraces the responsibility to ensure they're reliable and secure.
