voting **Against** on the current offchain vote because this is not the right way to do this. This proposal was rushed, the proposer didn’t incorporate feedback from the delegates, and I overall don’t agree with increasing the budget to almost double, without opening applications for other projects to apply as well. As I recommended before, we should invest heavily in stylus, and the right move, in my opinion, is to double down on the program and make a second season of it, with maybe even more budget than the first. But doing it like this is not okay.
