> [@DC for MGRC](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/dc-for-mgrc/36666/3): > > BTW- all of these questions apply generally to MGRC and all applicants > [@DC for MGRC](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/dc-for-mgrc/36666/3): > > I’m a bit surprised about this, because I personally would guess more effort even in the steady state. imo, 1 week per quarter doesn’t seem right. especially for the 1st elected team. > [@DC for MGRC](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/dc-for-mgrc/36666/3): > > Does that list of responsibilities seem necessary and complete to you? list seems to be a fair outline of what i consider to be MGRC’s main focus, but feel MGRC could possibly take on more responsibilities during downtimes, like outreach, etc. (have a few ideas, but i’ll wait until we’re closer to elections to post). > [@DC for MGRC](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/dc-for-mgrc/36666/3): > > Would you expect committee members themselves to perform most/all of this, or do you expect MGRC would hire staff for portions of it? i expect almost everything to be completed in house. every ZEC spent on MGRC operations will pull available ZEC from funding pool. this should be avoided (if possible). --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/announcing-my-official-candidacy-for-position-on-the-major-grant-review-committee/36336)._
