We're talking serious vacations.

The winners will pick their favorite destination from over 500 boutique hotels, resorts, and villas across the world.

We'll book the hotel.

We'll buy the flights.

We'll even issue them a pre-paid card for meals, adventures, or daiquiris by the pool.

Each winner will get up to $10,000 to spend on their vacation. Plus ones are welcome, or you can spend the whole thing on yourself. You do you!

Glad you asked. At Tuple, we love open source. We sponsor open source, we develop open source, we use open source. We're no strangers to signing off from a long day of coding just to finally open up some code!

We wanted to give back to the OSS community in a fun and unique way.

We talked to the maintainers of several projects and floated some of our brilliant* *They weren't that brilliant. and helpful** **They weren't that helpful. ideas by them.

We offered makeovers to documentation sites, pitching in with customer support, or incentivizing pull requests with swag. The responses ranged from “meh” to “please don't do this”.

We finally landed on one that hit home: what if we just sent people on an insane vacation?

It's something that almost everyone would love, but few would feel comfortable spending their own money on. That's exactly what we were looking for!
