Open source software is threatened by aging processes that endanger the sustainability of the soft- ware without targeted control. This paper presents the Kitodo Development Fund as an approach to address this aging process in a continuous way. Kitodo is three things in one – a widely used open source solution for producing and presenting digital objects, a community, and a non-profit association. Kitodo.Production is the workflow management module of the Kitodo suite that is used in more than 50 institutions in Germany. The development fund represents a model of how the association and the community together have successfully established a funding and controlling process to solve the risk of obsolescence.
