This would be massively important, thanks for the initiative @jolyon! However, could you specify in more details what are the concrete outcomes for this grant proposal? Docs are easily a never-ending project and there could always be more docs, so to help keep the goals more tangible and measurable, it's better to know specifics of the new docs.
This seems to be missing in the meta thread?
hey @jolyon was interested in where this got to. Reminder that the main goal of the grants is learning / sharing learning, but couldn't find where you've recorded yours.
Can you post an entry in that meta thread so others can learn from your work. Or if you've not done the work, or not received the money can you give us an update. cheers!
hey @jolyon it's been a month and I can't see your dev diary in your thread nor in %9psz2xP...
I'm feeling a bit stink, like you might have taken advantage of goodwill around the grants, or you've failed to communicate very clearly. Meanwhile others are doing documentation for free and could really benefit from that money.
hey @jolyon it's been another month.
At this point because I've neither heard nor seen anything (aside from you posting about travelling internationally) I'm personally writing off your grant as a failed experiment, and for myself marking you up as someone who I would not work with, nor recommend others to work with.
This isn't a threat, this is me being open and clear about my personal boundaries and wanting you to know how your lack of communication and how your lack of apparent integrity pans out for our future interactions.
I really wished I was wrong, and I still hold some small hope I'm wrong, but I'm not going to follow up any further.
For me, if you wanted to undo this dynamic I would expect you to communicate much more clearly, and either return that grant, or deliver something decent on it in the next month.
Go well
