While I agree with several points, I have a few questions regarding the whole scope:
Why do not go for an extension/renewal of the current grant and focus on delivering the current discussions you guys are involved with?
You guys mentioned hiring other contributors to tackle different areas and named a few (marketing, governance, etc). Can you be more specific on what do you plan to achieve?
IMO, the action points listed in here have an overlap with the ARDC and ADPC. Can you detail a plan to avoid conflicts or inefficiencies?
