Our funding campaign's target of $27500 was specifically calculated to be as much as I would cost in total for 1 whole 52-week year, not just 20 weeks. The calculation also included the fact that I've finished my studies meanwhile and thus now would have more time for working. We got $28962 in total, so with regards to me as a potential candidate, you can calculate with 1 year indeed. The remaining $ 1462 are a reasonable buffer for server costs etc. Matthew would deserve to cost us more, but he today said on IRC he's not available with the current funding level. He sounded like he wants to wait until the project has a lot more financial safety to offer. CCing to him so he can validate whether I properly summarized his statements. (I would thus also like to continue fundraising efforts immediately: He'll do something else for 1 year, and then do his master's thesis, so we have some time to acquire funds for him.) -- hopstolive (keyword for Ians spam filter)
