I think your contribution is definitely useful, and I think you're doing good work... I just don't know how feasible kicking open the door of paying individuals from the development fund for this kind of work is. How many folks have just as valid a claim as you? Further, how do we measure this in a way that is meaningful? There's no way to point at new users and say 'my twitter promotion resulted in X amount of measurable success'.

Funding marketing is useful and we should advertise and get the name out - but funding individuals talking about the chain? I don't see it doing anything but draining the fund and providing an avenue for many others to game the system to also drain the fund.

I like what you do, I respect your push on twitter, and I often am in those threads as well... but with respect, I will not find myself voting for any proposal that can't show actionable results from the use of the funds.

Too many people already use it as a free ride with little oversight.
