Dear PLC,
the developer team requests to repeat the sucessful 2023 Bugfix accelerator program in 2024 with a few upgrades as discussed in last week's developer meeting.
Background: see attached document, but to give you a summary of the changes:
*
No fixed list of contractors at the time of the vote; instead Call for applications like with the GTK4 internal contractor + hiring team.
*
Scenario of a contractor dropping out is explicitly covered; extension for the 1.4.x release series contained in the proposal.
*
Clarification that the selection of issues to work on is done primarily by the project.
*
Simplification of contract section.
As for other major expenses from contracting in 2024, my grants proposal is still awaiting SFC review.
Ballot:
a) Repeat the bugfix accelerator program under the conditions outlined in the proposal; allocate USD 20'000 to it.
b) No bugfix accelerator program in 2024.
c) Other: ______
Best regards, Jonathan ___________________
Hi Jonathan,
The changes look good to me.
Although I would vote a. I believe I should abstain in order to be able to participate in the program.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Vote A.
I don't think that people that are going to apply need to abstain, that's the point of having the hiring committee in this case. We're effectively just creating the committee and giving them a budget, they're given the decision making authority.
