Hi @FPF!

I’ve submitted my Q4 2026 retroactive grant application, but my forum account is new and I don’t have permission to create a topic in the Retroactive Grants category yet.

Could you please increase my trust level or enable topic creation so I can publish the required forum discussion before the deadline?

My GitHub application:

Thank you!

@FPF Could you please raise the trust level of my new forum account (Kylne700) so I can create a topic in Retroactive Grants? It is for my zcrowd application (GitHub issue 108), a project built with AI coding agents.

The submission deadline is today at 20:00 UTC (Noon Pacific).

  • Once we post on this thread that the submission window is closed no additional applications will be accepted.
  • Applications cannot be changed once the submission window closes, they can only be withdrawn by the applicant.
  • FPF will post once the review window has officially opened.

There are multiple submissions that require attention from the applicant in GitHub before we can apply the “Ready For Vote - All Steps Completed” label. If your submission does not have that label it will not be included in the review period so please review and respond ASAP.
