Does work on Tutor count?
Yes. Tutor is the official, endorsed community-supported deployment platform for Open edX, so work done within that context counts and is covered by OEP-55 and OEP-54 - specifically, building/maintaining the open source Tutor base and plugins which are officially supported by the Open edX project (this excludes for example Cairn).
Also note that Tutor forums are in the process part of moving to the official Open edX forums: see the banner at https://discuss. overhang.io/ banner (although people do still post in the old forums). It's also possible to pull Github issues from other orgs into openedx project boards by simply adding their URLs in the "+" field of any openedx board view. There are also discussions about moving tickets to the Open edX discourse & github.

This could be further automated in the future, see the suggestion Ghassan made about this: https://gitlab.com/opencraft/dev/listaflow/-/issues/40

Axim is paying for the work?
No, because the core contributor program is meant to increase the proportion of the maintenance & core work that is done by the larger community, rather than supported by tCRILAxim.

What if someone wants to contribute in a new way, and commits to do work that isn’t easily covered by a ticket? Can they add it to the list of items above, based on their nomination review in the forums?
