DotLeap has officially entered it's third year in production, with 104 weekly editions distributed!

With the growing operations of the RMRK team it has become necessary for Bruno Škorvc to hand day-to-day operations of DotLeap increasingly to gbaci, RMRK's professional content writer and accomplished author of Polkadot for Beginners. 

Additionally, with operating costs in excess of $50,000/year, it has become necessary for DotLeap operating capital to coalesce from sources supplementary to Bruno and gbaci's generous donations of personal financing and time. Production of DotLeap up until this point has been a labor of love.

This proposal serves to secure pro- and retroactive funding for DotLeap so that we may continue to service the growth of our quality community, and so that we may continue to assist the easy entry of new participants in our ecosystem. 

Please review our proposal [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BbpNMmbGU2q-bJlaj8PTscung7h1XUwZwH3hLj2yKwg/edit#) and please view and contribute to discussion in the Discussion forum [here](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/post/1410)
