What FOSS projects are most in need of funding? I'd like to help if I can.

I'm also looking for projects only related to FOSS, or "in-the-spirit" of FOSS.

You can donate to the general fund of Software in the Public Interest and let them figure out which of their projects (Debian is the most prominent one) needs the money most.

One advantage over Software Freedom Conservancy is that, if my memory serves, SFC criticized Richard Stallman and his appointment to the FSF board over the manufactured controversies of the last few years, SPI didn't.
