Thanks John!

I have created opencollective accounts both for my consulting biz and for myself - is there a preference for which one I should be submitting the invoices from?

I am currently finishing up a couple of projects and so won't be able to begin until late-May/early-June. Presumably that also helps if selecting the COTR takes a bit longer than expected.

@jdswinbank The period of performance has a typo - end date should (presumably) read as 2025-04-30 (and not 2024-04-30)

Not from our side! I guess it might have tax implications or something for you, though...

Thanks @AnaGabela! The description (and potentially the dates) looks like a copy-paste from a different proposal - do you want me to put "Performance optimisation" in the description (and the end-date as Apr 30, 2025)?

Oops... my mistake! Yes please make the corrections!!

Thanks!
