Dear PLC, *Background:* Jonathan Neuhauser (@joneuhauser at Gitlab and chat.inkscape.org) is submitting a proposal to hire two core developers for the equivalent of a month of work each to fix bugs and regressions during the remaining time until the 1.3 release. This proposal is a slightly changed version of the one voted on in December; with the main change that one contractor was removed to take into account PLC member remarks asking for a smaller scale first attempt. The complete proposal is appended; it contains all the details on the selection process, persons, objectives as well as a remark on why the Dev team asserts the opinion that at least two contractors should be hired for this project. *Proposal:* Voting is needed on the following items: - hiring Rafal Siejakowski and Martin Owens as contractors during the bugfixing season in order to fix known bugs before 1.3 is released, - allocating a total of USD 22,400 as compensation for the two contractors. Details on the process are lined out in the attached document. *Ballot:* a. Accept the above items. b. No, cease effort for Bugfix Accelerator 2023 c. Other: ______ Best regards, -- Mc
