These funds were donated for development and marketing. Is it too much to ask for transparency and accountability? If this is a one-time grant for past work then it would make sense that it was given without any precondition. If it is intended to be part of their ongoing compensation then it makes no sense to hand it out all at once. I was led to believe that all of the dev funds that are allotted for future dev and marketing work would be divided up and simply granted to the devs. We may never know what the plan is. We'll just have to watch the blockchain and take our best guess ...

Angel funds are donation and I3 clearly stated many many times that they could use it as they see fit, for some reason you always completely ignore that part in every accusation you make ... talking about biassed
However
Out of all your post in this tread this is something that I agree with and should be pointed out, even though no strings attached to angel funds, clearly communicating  how they will be spend I think it is important.Given that they were and are very open to every decision they made ( perhaps too open),  I firmly  believe they probably were planning to announce it eventually.

Isn't this entirely clear?  To recognize outstanding performance and reinforce the status of four of the industry's most accomplished developers as independent agents, furthering our goals of complete decentralization at the developer level, and strengthening their ability and motivation to live off a single delegate's salary until such time as the market cap quadruples raising those salaries back to their current modest levels?

In the end, we promised to use our best judgement.  This is our best judgement.

Will there continue be such a toolkit?

Was there ever a toolkit ?   

I'm not being a smartass. I'm confused at your response.

There was a toolkit, right? I'm asking will it continue exists.

Correct me if I am wrong but the toolkit was always the first DAC, bitshares X.  So then DNS came around which seemed like something reasonable to fork instead, but it was never named "bitshares_toolkit".  The problem is beyond a few utilities here and there, it isn't much of a framework for creating DACs. 

I'm not complaining as I've accepted these changes etc, but if BTS expects sharedrops instead of PTS/AGS, then it seems to me they should do something to help enable third party DACs going forward.

I'm just curious what the community thinks of this line of thought.

When Alaska voters go to the polls tomorrow to help decide whether the U.S. Senate will remain in Democratic control, thousands will do so electronically, using Alaska’s first-in-the-nation internet voting system. And according to the internet security experts, including the former top cybersecurity official for the Department of Homeland Security, that system is a security nightmare that threatens to put control of the U.S. Congress in the hands of foreign or domestic hackers..
