Finding someone qualified to hire. While it is indeed frustrating to see no progress here, I would please remind you that all of us are volunteers currently which means we have very limited time - and that time is fully consumed by the fact that we have to: - migrate the website - migrate the 3 wikis - migrate the bugtracker (I'm at it) - migrate the mailing lists and mail - do a Freenet release since there has not been one for half a year and we must do one soon due to the SSL certificate expiring All of those are complex tasks, and thus it would be very unwise to now start the even more complex task of hiring someone AND reviewing their code for whether the quality is sufficient / they aren't ripping us of. Thus I would propose we wait until the server migration is finished before we deal with the hiring. > I propose March 15th that the money is spent, to the best of the current > results of the poll and all discussion surrounding it. Sorry but it would be absolutely impossible to find someone trustworthy enough to hand them over $27500 right away in that timespan.
