Quote from: Akado on July 22, 2015, 04:49:04 pmfuzzy could you update the OP with the suggestions we have so far?I'm planning to make a poll with these all compiled. That way we have a general consensus of which are top priorities. Thanks for bumping so I don't have to though

Not a feature but i would like to see us lower the entry barrier, thats really important to get New users to understand and join bitshares. Videoa explaining the functionalities and specialy vídeos for use cases like the ones factom did, to get People to understand the potential in bitshares and spark their interest, upfate Wikipedia and detailed documentation, faqs, etc
We will need something to manage the organization of the paid workers, it's complicated to organize. But it's a good idea.

Quote from: Pheonike on July 13, 2015, 02:10:44 pmAfter a proposal is voted for to determine its importance level to the community, there should be a second phase where potential workers bid for the project. They should give their price, time to complete, and reasons why they should be voted on to do the job. The community votes and the winner is awarded the contract. This approach cleanly splits the proposal approval from the choice of workers to implement it, and that is very good. It also provides the most efficient path to implementation, and focuses the worker implementation bid primarily on implementation concerns and not on financing.Should both phases be approved by a vote of shareholders at large or only the proposal phase, with approval of the contract award based on a multi-sig vote of the delegates? I pose that question because the delegates may be better informed about developer qualifications and it may thus be easier to reach a consensus of the best dev team to implement the proposal.

It seems that we need a tool to manage/deal with the organisation of the paid workers.Maybe that tool could be created by a paid worked job. (just throwing the idea)
Projects i'd like to see get funded:1) Hardware and iOS/Android wallets2) Merchant POS apps, devices, businesses, whatever...just get bitUSD out into the world3) Direct fiat-BTS-bitasset on/off ramps so i don't have to keep telling people 'you first need to buy bitcoin and then you can buy bitUSD'
You own the network, but who pays for development?
Quote from: starspirit on July 13, 2015, 12:44:00 pmWhat I imagined here was that a project concept can be promoted by the community and then outsourced to developers, rather than having to be initiated by the developers themselves. For example, if the community was keen to pursue a particular strategic direction in development. Whereas there's a risk that an eclectic mix of individual developers coming to the community may simply promote ad-hoc improvements. But it would take time for the community to develop such coherence of thought.I still think the project proposal format is the most appropriate for the community to vote on though, backed up by the skill of the developers proposing to implement it. This moves beyond a simple job application format.

QuoteExactly who implements is a secondary consideration, as long as CNX is internally comfortable with feasibility and availability of resources. Don't get the relation to CNX .. the blockchain can also pay for indepenent 3rd party projects .. like a hardware wallet, public API, coldstorage services, mobile wallet, alternative wallet and many more .. not just core development.QuoteI think such project proposals could in principle be formed by anybody in the community, with input from CNX. Although it is only to be expected that initially most projects will be put forward by CNX or individual developers.Even though CNX is a heavy dev company I don't see the need for input from them .. in principle we could also have a software development in europe and one in asia .. in the end, the shareholder vote for their hardforks .. not CNX .. and from what I know .. BM doesn't want to have a say in BitShares at all ..

Quote from: starspirit on July 13, 2015, 12:02:07 pmWouldn't these be much more effective as project proposals than job applications? The core goal is to create value for BTS and demonstrate why any project will do so. So we need to be able to compare the strategic advantages of different work directions. I also suspect most of the community can't easily judge the skills of a developer (CNX itself seems best placed to do that), but they can make judgements on the cost/benefit of a project. Project proposals would normally include, amongst other things:- description of project- benefits- costs- risks- timeframe- resourcesEventually .. yes but as long as a delegate can hardly pay a single person's expenses I don't see how it could fund a whole project ..But I agree ..

BM doesn't want to have a say in BitShares at all ..the more devs joining our community, the better; esp when they're distributed around the planet working on tangentially related projects making use of our products. hopefully the release of 2.0 sparks a lot more autonomous dev involvement.

IMHO it should look close to a regular job application? maybe less personal stuff and more job/experience-related content
