An Idea - Invest in People, not Packetized Projects

Why isn’t the answer “It went to commits x,y,z (easy to track), releases a,b,c, and their support and maintenance this month” good enough?

In 0x case, this is how he has been working for about a year and providing community updates:

Zcash core developer proposal

Milestone 11 was closed. Items planned for the first alpha were done, i had the help of the zebra team members to do them and in that collaboration work the code is now merged and it is being tested for the first alpha release. I opened a new milestone which is actually the last one of this proposal zf-grants/milestone12.md at master · oxarbitrage/zf-grants · GitHub I am planning on submitting a similar contract for 2021 to continue the work, i already spoke about it with the foundation side …

I personally would not be opposed to this kind of funding model if a developer wanted a opportunity to work on Zcashd, Zebra, or even Lightwalletd development.
