Thanks for the info! I want to lay out our timeline briefly here just to avoid any confusion, as we’ve conversed here, Discord, and via email and the committee will need some of that info. This is mostly just to summarize the current situation in the forum for record-keeping, but also to get everyone on the same page.
- On Jan 12, we conditionally approved this proposal. The condition was removal of the Python SDK, which made it a $4,500 grant as per the budget request at that time
- On Jan 13, you stated you agreed in a forum response, but then updated the proposal. This required a re-review by the committee because the proposal had been updated.
- On Jan 25, we posted the committee’s comments on this updated proposal. They did not approve it and had some questions.
- On Jan 26, we chatted in Discord. You accepted the original proposal, the $4,500 grant for a renterd alert bot and the removal of the Python SDK. Screenshot for reference.
- We then reached out and began onboarding.
- After onboarding was started, you have posted the above updated proposal which is very similar to the original one the committee had questions about. I see you’ve added a section about Differentiation and a note addressing the budget increase.
- The committee must review these updates to your proposal.
Alright, there’s our summary! Just to be clear, any updates made to a proposal must be reviewed by the committee before approval. Despite the fact that we’ve begun onboarding, this grant is paused unless you want to proceed with the initial $4,500 budget approval from Jan 12. Thanks!
