Hi all, Thanks for your feedback, Steinsplitter. I have responded to your post at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Commons_Android_app_-_IEG_renewal_proposal , so it might be best to continue our conversation there instead of duplicating it here.
Gerard, was your post directed at me or at Steinsplitter? Am a bit confused. I do agree with Chris; I don't think there should be any need to argue over which project should have #1 priority. AFAIK several grants are awarded every round, not just one, and there are multiple rounds every year.
