Fund a Developer: moneromoo will work part-time on Monero fo[...]

moneromoo is well-known contributor with a string of commits and good pull requests: https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/commits/master?author=moneromooo-monero

I personally support his application for funding, as does the rest of the core team. He has committed to working for 260 hours over 6 months or so (until they run out) at a total cost of 7800 XMR, ie. 30 XMR per hour. This is obviously a vastly reduced rate for a competent C / C++ developer, and moneromoo is taking on the effort in his spare time in the hopes that the XMR will be worth significantly more some day.

Milestones will be time based, with 1300 XMR released every 45 hours worked (or 35 hours for the last bit). As with all funding using the FFF (forum funding system) the funds will only be released to him on completion of a milestone and on a general community agreement that there was work done in that period. He will not be expected to put in a timesheet, per se, but he will be expected to provide a list of things he worked on and associated PRs / commits for that period.

Thanks all.

The simplewallet translations system is now merged.

Next, I'll be working on moving code to libraries where appropriate. The "libraryize" item on the design goals. First step will be to get te 0mq branch to build for me, because it unexpectedly doesn't.

Paging sylviaplathlikestobake.... If you get this, please donate my 25 XMR you awarded me for the best ELI5 last year to this cause.
If you've had hard times in the mean time and don't have it, I understand.
It felt good to win the prize, and it'd feel good to pass it on to someone else working on this interesting project.
Thanks

Cool, do you want it to make it to the general fund or this project? I'll kick-in another 25 as a matching donation.

Awesome. Your call. Maybe you've got an idea where it might be needed best.
I think it'd be great to stick general funding into this category along with translations and extra dev support. Would help clarify what that meant to me and probably others.
