My current Open Source project is stress-ng, a tool for stress-testing POSIX systems. I've been working on stress-ng for over a decade and I make regular monthly releases of the tool. This takes hundreds of machine hours to test on over 100 virtual machines and real hardware, which takes time and can consume a lot of power. I'm open to sponsorship for this work.
