Dear PLC,

We're about to start a new round of the Bug Accelerator Program. We

don't yet have a replacement programmer for Sean, we're waitng on Pono

for the go ahead to contract a replacement. Sean has actually kindly

offered to help with merge request reviews as a volunteer to help cover

the missing balancing we were getting between out two devs.

But after talking with Roland Taylor, our issues administrator for the

program; he'd like to be able to use some of the time to work on fixing

issues with the new rendering engine work too. This is born out of the

success of the program so far and how much help he thinks I need with

the engine branch. I agreed that I could do with the help and rather

than go through a whole process to hire that help, we can use the hours

we've already budgeted to make sure this lands safely and with as few

issues out the gate without interfering with older bugs he'd prioritise

as needed.

I come to you with a simmple vote:

-------------

Allow Roland Taylor to schedule Bug Accelerator hours for developers to

help fix issues with the new rendering engine as he sees fit according

to the priorities of making Inkscape 1.5 a solid release:

1) Allow

2) Disallow

3) Something else

--------------

Now that I'm mostly recovered from my appendix surgery, I'll be trying

to get that second developer sorted out but pushing the SFC some more.

Sorry for the delay there.

Martin,
