Thanks for all your work on this and for inviting community feedback. It is very often the case that when proposals get funded, the desire of people behind them to integrate community feedback into their work and roadmaps wanes. With this disconnect, community support goes down over time. It feels like with a project of SPK's magnitude, this kind of disconnect has happened, and the community rightly wants to see its priorities addressed. Just my two cents - take it or leave it.

My personal feedback is that I would like to see a more concrete first milestone that will bring a new feature that can be felt by the Hive user. That could be for example the delivery of an image hosting service which frontends can begin using instead of the centralized image servers they use now. In essence, I want to see an SPK feature that becomes fully available, and the deliverable is not simply a release of a software package or documentation but for the average Hive user to be able to use this feature.
