Thanks for all your work to further this blockchain! Voted for the proposal.

I think it might help alleviate the concerns of some people if there is a more detailed breakdown of the costs - what was done, roughly how much time it took (or is expected to take) and the hourly rate. This would also give you the opportunity to include the pro-bono work you have done which I think has gone unnoticed. Any contract with a company would include an invoice with a cost breakdown (including any pro-bono work), so I think we have to learn to do this when the company paying for the work is actually a decentralized community. It seems like it would alleviate a lot of concerns and create more accountability and transparency. My guess is a lot of the negative feedback people are voicing is really about them wanting a bit more clarity as to what exactly was done and being charged for - it's a bad experience to be left in the dark (even if it was unintentional) so I can understand why they are reacting this way.
