I'll try to break down the budget:

  1. Servers. We use 2 hetzner servers which cost about $40/month.
  2. Other infra services like IPFS pin, email, etc. They are covered by polkadot referendum #1860.
  3. Labor cost. This is the majority of the budget. The work includes server maintenance, new release deployment, bug fixes and new feature developments. We allocate about 40 hours per month on average.

Picked Already known development work includes:

  • Support secretary related business
    • Members page
    • Salary list and detail page where secretaries can view and claim their salaries.
    • Statistics about secretary salaries.
  • Support HOLLAR as the salary currency.
  • Fellowship referendum history tally.
  • Voter actions of a fellowship referendum.
  • Curves tab on the referendum detail page.
  • Show fellowship salary status on the summary page.
  • Merge active and passive salary into one salary column.
  • Fix copywriting of the fellowship referendum submitted feed item.
  • Not show evidence of candidates on the evidence list page as Anaelle’s request.
  • Fix an issue about mismatch between fellowship referendum and evidence after evidence resubmission.
  • Show HOLLAR balance on the fellowship finance panel.

There are also some unknown work due to fellowship members' request.
