As bytemaster stated here: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=13988.msg181865#msg181865, the current core team is now very focused and making steady progress. However, there are still many outstanding issues that we currently do not have the resources to address.
I think Peter makes a strong proposal, and even with the currently low exchange rate, I believe we can find some relatively low-hanging fruit for him to work on which would not conflict with anyone else's work, but still provide valuable polish and improve usability. Note that some discussion is still required in order to decide on specific tasks, but once decided, he will be held accountable at the various levels--by his delegate operator, by myself and the rest of the dev team, and by all of the shareholders.
Given the above, I support and endorse this proposal.
I work with pc on the PTS-DPOS project and I find him a highly professional and committed person. Besides being skillful in what he is doing, he is a determined person who has proven to deliver quality (many-a-time innovative) work and most importantly on time.
Some time in mid Dec'14, we discovered the same the same transaction malleability bug that affected bitshares was found in PTS-DPOS too. It was a serious bug that allowed double-spending. We knew we were fighting for time to avoid the bug being exploited by hackers, the result could be wide spread panic among users. pc worked on a solution meticulously and with a deep sense of urgency. Within a day or so, he fixed the bug, tested it and readied for a new released - PTS-DPOS v2.01. (PTS-DPOS v2.01 has been working smoothly since released). It is during this time that I could feel the deep sense of commitment and responsibility in pc. I enjoy working with him.
I have no doubt that pc would provide tremendous values to the Bitshares team. I would be helping to review his work for the tasks assigned to him.
