I heard that the SV razor was a big commitment for Ulrik and interfered with progress on his backlog. My understanding is that is why TI took over. Your idea of keeping it simple for him and basing it off the Piggy Bank is a great one.
Obviously, I’m in. If you get a list of interested buyers, and the numbers are reasonable, I will help you propose this to him. He normally works at risk; getting payment after the work is done. My contribution to the effort will be to reduce his risk by paying all, or some portion, of the money up front to provide incentive for the effort.
Oh, you seem really motivated! Let's get in touch and see whether we want to spearhead something together maybe after the LG craziness is over?
Right now I don't feel like I have any free bandwidth 😬
I completely understand. Yeah, I think we have a unique global community, and I see more SRs being used in SOTD comments. A sub+lemmy group straight would be cool in several ways. Look forward to chatting in July.
Yes, me too!
