Hey there @quardz,

That's a cool website you are building, we also appreciate to see Aragon on there. We are currently in the process of thinking about bounties and contributor experience in Aragon (see). We'll probably need a bit more time to think about this while keeping your proposal in mind. Thanks for your patience!

Many thanks.

Hey there @quardz,

As said earlier, this is initiative is a bit early for us and we need to keep working on our contributor strategies. I will close this proposal for now but we'd love to keep in touch.

Thanks again for this cool proposal.
