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.

Millions of people use beautifulsoup4, but most probably don’t realize that a core library that powers it, soupsieve, is effectively maintained by one person. In the spirit of the xkcd you linked, Isaac Muse could probably use some funding
