[MICROGRANT] IPNS-Link #122

Closed SomajitDey closed 2 years ago

SomajitDey commented 2 years ago

1. What is your project? (max 100 words)

Main Goal: Address/Expose any website, even a dynamic one, using IPNS and serve it efficiently using IPFS.

Overview: Alice runs her http-server (website) on localhost, and also runs the ipns-link app on the same machine. The app gives her an IPNS-name. Even if her localhost doesn't have a public IP, her website becomes accessible via any gateway, using the IPNS-Name. IPFS is used as a CDN and for making live-streaming efficient.

Catchphrase: Free, secure, domainless, censorship-resistant self-hosting for the decentralized web.

GitHub organization: https://github.com/ipns-link

Website: https://www.ipns.live

Full specs: https://github.com/ipns-link/specs

Blogs: Medium; Dev; BMC

This microgrant has been approved! Look out for an email to submit payment details. Let's use your existing Community Discussion thread for updates.

Hello! I am a member of the IPNS link team. I am curious if you could validate in any way that fil.org is associated with ipfs devgrants. I couldn't find anything on the internet for this and submitting personal details to an organization I can't track the origin of is a bit disturbing...

SeedingTrees commented 2 years ago

Thanks, Rinzler. Yes, that is the website for the Filecoin Foundation. I am a Senior Fellow in the Foundation. If your grant proposal is accepted, you may find yourself interacting with folks from either the Filecoin Foundation or Protocol Labs.

Announcement:

@SomajitDey is leaving the IPNS-Link project due to lack of time @rinzler100 will be accepting the Microgrant on behalf of the remaining team

rinzler100 commented 2 years ago

I have submitted the form! image

I forgot to fill out the signature part so I have resubmitted the form with the corrections made to the document.

rinzler100 commented 2 years ago

Hello, I ask this on behalf of the IPNS-Link team: is there an ETA on the delivery of the funds? (We know it will come in within a month but we were curious as to when so we can make better informed decisions)

SeedingTrees commented 2 years ago

Thanks for checking in, @rinzler100. Did you receive the email that I sent on December 6 with the instructions for requesting payment? If so, please reply to that email so that we can work through the payment details.

rinzler100 commented 2 years ago

Alright, I sent the question via the second email thread (the latest one), thanks.

SeedingTrees commented 2 years ago

Thank you. I am adding in an additional distro to help you with receiving your microgrant.

Cheers,

Hunter

rinzler100 commented 2 years ago

Can you clarify what you mean by "additional distro"?

SeedingTrees commented 2 years ago

I did not realize that your message was from Github. I was moving through emails quickly and replied to your message like it was an email, including adding in the email distro of my colleagues who handle payments.

Let's move this conversation to email rather than Github. We handle all of the payment discussions over email to protect personal details. Please reply to my December 6 email with confirmation that you submitted your payment request per the instructions.

SeedingTrees commented 2 years ago

Hi IPNS-Link team,

Thanks for reaching out. We are working to deliver payments as quickly as possible. We are a small team cranking out hundreds of disbursements.

Unfortunately, I cannot tell you right now which batch your payment is in, however, your claim has been reviewed and approved for payment delivery.

Please do let us know should you not receive it by 1/10/22.

Cheers, Protocol Labs Grants team
