Thank you for the proposal, however we we have decided to deny your application. For the next several quarters we are laser focused on conserving funding for efforts that have clear alignment with the current priorities of the grants program noted here - specifically sBTC.
I would suggest reaching out to Adam Haun, the Community Lead at the Stacks Foundation ( adam at stacks dot org) - he may be able to provide you with some additional suggestions on how Stacks can support your efforts at this time.
Best, Will
