RE: Gridcoin Community Hangout #022 - 21th Jan 2017 @ 9PM GMT (RSVP & Suggest topics!)
The potential of adding or raising bounties to fund projects. Also to think about different projects to potentially fund bounties for. I think that since there has been another faucet site that got foundation funds then there could also be a portion of some raised funds donated to bounties. We could discuss maybe putting this towards a vote for finding interest before actually specific bounty funding of a project, example given, open source mining pool.
task: "POOL: open sourcing it" https://github.com/Erkan-Yilmaz/Gridcoin-tasks/issues/2
there is now a 40k GRC bounty for this task:

and $50 (or $100) for PoSv3
Cryptocointalk thread: https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/49262-open-source-project-gridcoin-pool-boinc-account-manager/page-3
The faucet received funds to be distributed to users, not to fund the website itself.
https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-Research/issues/184 This issue details a large git commit backlog of similar crypto code bases, a large amount of development bounties likely need assigned to its tasks.
The open source mining pool should have a bounty, sure, but thus far no planning has gone into the project. Katiee isn't likely to open source her pool neither.
Ideally we would wait until GRC was worth more before setting massive bounties, but we've got to start somewhere, eh?
