[Qgis-psc] Discussion our financial situation

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Tim 

Improving our infrastructure (stripe integration, changelog, etc.) is
definitely worth-while investing into it. Do you have estimates, how
much time/money certain tasks would imply? 

Or should we say - let's dedicate 10k EUR and let you work with it? 

Yes, I also agree that bug fixing is always useful. 

Thanks for your reply and greetings, 

Andreas

Many of these task are already underway but it would help us to get dedicated time from Anita Hapsari onto this.
