Other Opportunities
Missions usually happen every few months. So you could propose a mission or fulfill a mission. If there are any large projects that you have in mind and you need funding in order to do them, then consider starting to draft a mission proposal now so you’ll have it ready by the next season

There are also many other important projects that need work and I’d be interested to hear if you have other ideas in mind about how you’d like to help. Tadas and Vlad are interesting in collaborating as well, though I think they’re mostly focused on the Respect Game app and Respect Trees so they don’t have much extra bandwidth to do other projects now and we’d all appreciate your help. Overall I think there’s a lot of ‘low hanging fruit’ that we could develop fairly quickly and we’d just need to figure out what fits best with your time and interests. There are also excellent funding opportunities available for doing development for Optimism Fractal (such as RetroFunding) and I’d be happy to help you earn compensation for your work.
