RE: BitShares Hangout #34 - 2017-08-18 - OpenSource Agenda [WhaleShare/Beyondbit Payouts Powered by SP!]

GUI Worker Proposal was Approved

Earlier this week, the Worker Proposal (WP) for the reference GUI wallet, which was led by Bill Butler ( @billbutler ), was approved. The WP had initially gained hundreds of millions of stake votes but was still short of winning approval. After receiving various suggestions from proxies among the Chinese community, the WP was modified to become more of a bounty system: Bill Butler would effectively annonce prize money for certain Github GUI issues, and anyone could work and then claim the issue after being reviewed.

According to Zhaomu ( @lzmlam ), after the WP was approved, many in the Chinese community, including abitmore and bitcrab, began to show an extremely positive attitude towards the bounty program. The bountry program has been spread widely to attract more developers in China due to the salary of 125 USD / hour. Not only is this beneficial towards completing work but also towards marketing of BitShares among the Chinese community.

I can vouch that these developers are actively working on the Bitshares-UI issues w/ a rapid response rate. I've reported a couple issues recently which were confirmed as small bugs which were patched within a few hours. I'm proud to have supported this worker proposal!
