Hi Anna Moris, thanks for sharing an insight into your project! As others have also recently mentioned, the problem is that currently none of the developers (including me) has time to do funded work. Additionally we still have money left from our big campaign last year, so especially small scale projects could be covered. Before this could be done however we would need to discuss the relationship between funded work on individual features/bugs and the rest done in the developers' spare time. regards, Till > > Thanks > > Anna Morris > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlKvZHYACgkQzwEyz7QP6nR8twCglevtCqkhLn1sh6rQQ/xU1jR0 3IoAoIEMV7m9O6eJ/8veLNJUns1vMXFC =JP9A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
