What effect will dropping to one server have on PR? It could end up being counter productive if investors lose confidence. Once this decision is made, it will always be a milestone in the protocols history, that the network became too costly to run.

Good work (y)

And me

Do we need a anything more permissive than MIT? If someone runs off with the code, and creates a proprietary version, would anyone care? Can't imagine anyone would use it.

Regarding the questions about our efficiency as a dev ANO; this will be covered in our quarterly update (which will be released at the end of this month); but to give some insight in what we have developed so far in the addition to the TFA-bot: - TFA-explorer: Alternative to the Factom explorer...

My personal view, is the bot is done. It serves all the requirements we set out to achieve, and more. I have since started working on other unpaid Factom related projects, and will maintain the bot as required on the side. However there are these outstanding feature requests, and I feel my...

Since we released the first community version of the bot, we have had a number of requests to add new features. Many of which we have added during regular software maintenance, such as basic twilio support the recent e-mail alerts. We want to know if it's worth creating a grant proposal to add...

Technical please.

NK05 What actions will you take to make sure your system administration is of the highest quality and mostly a repeatable process?" Writing scripts for common tasks. We will define and document processes where applicable, and utilise the Ledger login system to make scripts available to our...

NK04 You mention hardening the servers using puppet; Could you elaborate a little about the above claim? Puppet has a series of administration, monitoring, security, scripting, and deployment tools. Their website boast that 75% of the fortune 1000 companies use it, as well as used extensively...

Short tech question. Nice ledger S integration for SSH :). How long is the ledger S usable for auth after having entered the pincode? Until you unplug the Ledger. You can also have an additional password set. It's better than the yubikey's in that regard.

NK03 Could you provide some insight in any firewalling you are applying? On of the really few things I missed (or overlooked) in your application. We use iptables, to DROP packets for unused ports. SSH Access is moved to a non-standard port (and a different IP address where we are using...

NK02 Like mentioned by fellow guides, you list some projects that are big endeavours Given your projections are based on node income, how would you provide accountability for the projects you are running to the standing parties? We touched on this in our previous response, we acknowledge that...

NK01: Could you elaborate why you mostly rely on node income to fund your development and desire for more than 2 nodes? You mention grants in your application for some projects. Have you considered a more substantial role in your financials for grants? In short, yes; we’ve always intended for...

DC Question D: We would like to make it clear that with 1 server our capacity to do internal development work may be limited at lower Factoid prices; even with efficiency set at 25%, some team members may be part-time. Internal development will continue under any price scenarios, though the...

We believe some of those projects in question are crucial to the adoption of Factom and should be developed sooner rather than later. Possessing Factom core experience, we believe we are among few entities who possess the knowledge to execute them in their entirety; To quote Paul Snow, “I will...

A. We understand that initially there will not be a possibility to run more than 2 servers, but if the Authority Set deployments for a time opens up for hosting more than 2 we'll be pursuing up to 5 for a limited amount of time (in a longer time perspective we expect this to go down to 1). B...

Greetings A little correction to our application: We answered the question on Testnet nodes, by submitting TFA-Authority Set.pdf. This was actually about our MainNet nodes. We will continue to run Testnet nodes. 5 or more if required.
