who is on the "rusty sunrise choir" team so far?

@dinosaur is the founder of the team, he will be playing the role of "sponsor", "navigator", and "supporter".

@dinosaur reached out privately to some butts in advance: @piet, @matt, @aljoscha, @dominic, @mix, @andrestaltz

@piet and @aljoscha have committed to be the initial developers.

@matt and @mix have expressed interest.

what is the initial budget?

@dinosaur has committed to sponsor 2 developers full-time for 6 months, or $60k USD.

20 days per month * $250 USD per day == $5k USD per month

$5k USD per developer per month * 2 developers * 6 months == $60k USD

why would anyone be a sponsor?

the "return on investment" is a better Scuttlebutt, where better is subjective.

why the name "rusty sunrise choir"?

it's a placeholder name until we host a #naming-party.

• rusty: because we plan to get amongst the Rust programming language
• sunrise: because we are the start of a new day in the scuttleverse
• choir: because we sing the Chorus
