Well why would they suddenly come out of the shadow and ALL support this funding instead of being against it. It also looks like they know many benefits of this projects while we have a ton of questions.
Even if they happen to have a low importance, only their presence here is disturbing. It looks like a psychological operation to try to convince the ones with a higher importance to vote Yes.

Are you saying that Atraura is secretly financing fake accounts to promote their project? Cheesy
People who contribute less care less about ideology and more about profit.
I feel like NEMergizer started negativity with misunderstanding that the project would be funded from dev fund instead of community fund, then random newbies emerged, then old members started a crusade against the young ones.

So let's focus on the issues:
 - Atraura is not internal - same as anyone from community coding for bounty
 - Atraura seems to have approached NEM first - is this really an issue?
 - It seems ridiculously expensive - let's try to find a price both parties are willing to accept.
   Here https://forum.nem.io/t/nem-framework-community-proposal/5174/26 I proposed that part of the bounty would be paid in fixed NEM and part according to future exchange rate. So Atraura is motivated to finish succesfully which will increase the price, but it's not that volatile. Advantage for us is that when the price of NEM is 1$ in a year, we won't suffer $15M loss from this development.


yes; fixed payment and floating range ... that also I was thinking.
The floating part should have the minimum and maximum limits.
Another issue is how the floating part bonus is calculated;
   a)  function( NEM software quality and success among the developers "worldwide" )
   b)  function( XEM price in exchanges )
   c)  some other?

The alternative a) is difficult to evaluate, so maybe that is the reason why many companies are using the b) alternative Sad


And as CoinNews earlier suggested the payments would be divided according to the Milestones.
Maybe also such could be used that 50% is paid after the whole project is completed and approved.

That was the positive part : yes, we are planning the payments Smiley


The negative part is as follows:
To evaluate the possible benefits, there are needed good examples of the use cases, etc.
The 5 days is quite short time to study and understand them well enough. Isn't it possible to use more time to evaluations?
