Hi Derek,

Let's get you started on getting a new contract with NumFocus because I think that's gonna take them a little while. Here are the instructions:

Go to https://numfocus.org/rocket Click on Independent Contractor Registration Form fields Project: Astropy Grant: NASA Full Name Email address Street Address Street Address City State Postal Code Country Start Date: May 1, 2024-April 30, 2025 Description: Core Maintainer, Coordination Committee and Affiliated Editor Support Project Contact name: Astropy Finance Committee Project Contact email: finance@astropy.org Payment method: ACH, Wire Transfer, PayPal Bank Information Comments about payment Upload W9 or W8 Please let me know that you have submitted the form so we can keep track of it.

Hi @AnaGabela, will do probably next week. I have started doing some work this month, but would prefer to invoice just semi-annually (i.e. at the end of this year and next year) if that's OK – so should leave plenty of time to set up the contract.

Description: Specreduce and spectroscopy development

I believe this was incorrectly copied over from another template (same, it seems, for other FRs) – my project is primarily core maintainer and CoCo work with a bit of specutils development, but hardly specreduce.

Another question: original period of performance was until 2025-04-30, but the contract states - Feb 28 – is this just the latest start date, or simply renewal time with NumFOCUS, or should I plan this part of the work to be completed by February? Thanks, Derek

Hi @dhomeier, NumFocus has sent you the contract... can you check and see if you have received it? The last email I got from them said the contractor name (yours) was fixed.. please let me know if you found it and sent it back to them. Thanks!
