Hi all,

I’d like to get a feeling from our contributors about how funds should be used. I’ve marked several issues as prerequisite to implementing OMEMO recently, and wondered if it’s worth allowing part of the bounty to be paid on these blocking issues to try and encourage development on them, or would it be better to save the whole bounty and pay it out to whomever implements OMEMO itself? For example, #292 has nothing to do with OMEMO itself, but needs to be done before any OMEMO implementation is very useful. I’d love to get your thoughts, especially if you’re thinking a bout implementing any part of it or are one of the financial contributors to the bounty.

If we do want to allocate some amount, how do we decide how much for each issue?
