# Future Work and Roadmap Proof of Contribution is aiming to boost the sustainability of the software supply chain by addressing how OSS impact is measured and rewarded. While Proof of Contribution is being established centrally at first to allow proper spam protection and fair value attribution, the development and maintenance of Proof of Contribution will be progressively decentralized. The impact metrics used by Proof of Contribution will also be calibrated over time for more nuanced evaluations. Future versions of the algorithm may incorporate more varied types of contributions and dependencies, addressing both code and non-code factors. Spam detection and resistance will remain as a central focus for the design of the algorithm. Proof of Contribution is not just an algorithm—it also represents [a vision](https://tea.xyz/blog/tea-protocol-web3-value-creation) of an OSS landscape that is more equitable and community driven. The continuous refinement of Proof of Contribution aims to benefit all, from individual developers to the entire software ecosystem. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.tea.xyz/tea/i-want-to.../learn-about-proof-of-contribution/future-work-and-roadmap.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
