## Small Grant: CDN-pi

Thanks for your proposal to The Sia Foundation Grants Program.

After review, the Committee has decided to reject your proposal citing the following reasons:

  • There are technical concerns regarding the proposed execution for this project, namely, the use of the Go SDK which will likely result in slower speeds without caching and removes any benefit of using Sia. The Committee recommends waiting until downloads without log-in is available, which should be within a week or two, in order to avoid this issue.

  • There is also confusion around which indexer you are planning on utilizing (your own or Sia.Storage), and we recommend reviewing the indexer section on the Dev Portal to clarify this. It would most likely be easier to use Sia.Storage for the development of this MVP as no SiaCoins would be required.

We’ll be moving this to the Rejected section of the Forum. Thanks again for your proposal, and you’re always welcome to submit new requests if you feel you can address the Committee’s concerns.
