Hi,
The poll concluded a few weeks back and exceeded its hopstolive.¹ We
should adhere to it and spend the money. I think we should start by
writing offers in Freenet forums to pay people to do the highest ranking
tasks and move to later tasks when the initial tasks are done.
These are the two top tasks (they came out on top in every evaluation):
(1) Title: *Darknet invitation bundles*
Description: Adding a single use node reference to an installer
executable. People could hand out the installer executable to
their friends to allow them to connect by Darknet instantly. See
- https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=166#c11290
(an overview of the requirements and options for invites) and
- https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=1342
("create a bundle installer")
Estimated cost: 1 to 1.125 weeks (~ 1000$ to 1250$)
(2) Title: *Fix the installers*
Description: Fix windows installers first, then add packages for
linux. See
- https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=1276 and
- https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=1275 and
- https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=5892 and
linked issues.
Estimated cost: 0.5 to 2 weeks (~ 500$ to 2000$)
Can we put up offers for these, using the cost estimates as payment?
Are the descriptions here sufficient?
As success condition for payment I’d use:
(1) A pull-request is accepted which adds a single-click option in the
web interface which creates a bundle with installers for Windows,
MacOS and *nix. These installers must be preconfigured to
automatically connect via darknet to the node on which the bundle
was created.
(2) Pull-requests are accepted which identify problems in the
windows-installer and resolve them. This includes porting the
wrapper to a 64bit JVM.
Did I miss something required to address the tasks?
Best wishes,
Arne
¹: Ping sanity.
PS: Finishing the first iteration of the WoT would normally be among
these two (with estimated 2.8 to 4.1 weeks ~ 2800$ to 4100$), but xor
pulled back his votes on that, so I won’t name it here until the
issue is resolved. That need not block the two tasks named here.
