The development of the Ether1 Project has fallen heavily on DevJames, Fallen, Treehouse, Primate and others in the past two years (sorry if I forgot to mention your name). Going forward in the spirit of Decentralization the project needs to migrate to a more bottom-up approach. The Community must propose ideas, direction, and improvements.
Therefore if a Community Member wishes to submit an ECP they must do some research on the improvement. Which means submitting a budget for the item (if there is a cost associated with the improvement). For example, a new "Android Wallet" that looks like "XYZ Coin" because that wallet just rocks. Ok, well maybe XYZ wallet was developed using the ABC Development Kit, and that cost $500. In addition, the cost of developers needs to be also included because no one at Ether1 knows how to use the ABC kit. In this case the Community Member got a bid for the developer's time and that is also $500.
In summary, the Community Member would submit an ECP that says something like this:
I, BigKillerDude, propose a new Ether1 Andriod Wallet, I have found the tool kit and developers, the kit is $500 and the developers have given me a bid for $500 and it will take 2 weeks. Total is $1000.
We need this wallet because.....
Submitting an ECP with a budget brings a reality check to the process and also provides discipline to the process.
