Moving the Dev Fund discussion forward

Governance
105

That’s correct. This is not about obtaining recipients’ permission to include them as a Dev Fund recipient.

@daira ECC has stated that it supports either:

  • extending the existing development fund (i.e. ECC continues to receive the lion’s share of funding, and there can be no new Dev Fund recipients) or
  • allowing the Dev Fund to expire.

If it becomes clear that the Zcash community supports a different approach (for example, @GGuy’s proposal), will the ECC engineers implement that in zcashd, or will they refuse because it’s not one of the options that ECC supports?

ETA: This is pretty important because, if ECC will refuse to implement @GGuy’s declining schedule in zcashd even if doing so is the clear consensus of the Zcash community, then the whole idea becomes a bit moot. :man_shrugging:

I think the community deserves to know that now.
