Not that it matters, but I vote C. My thoughts on the original proposal still stand and this coming up for a vote again so soon doesn't track since this is the very thing we're supposed to be having a meeting with Pono about. Am I mistaken about the purpose of the meeting that is supposed to take place (or did it happen and I missed it)? Likewise, if I'm not mistaken, Martin even brought it up at the last PLC meeting.
Cheers, Josh

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,
