For me and the work I've carved out for myself there are no such mechanisms, understandably because I know I'm not at a university. But I do wish that tech organizations could think bigger about who builds for tech communities and how. At any rate, it is interesting to think about Catharsis as a potential vehicle for my open science work; that was how I did the Learning in the Dark study, funded freely giving back with enough client work.
I don't know if that's possible in this market
