PRE: DISCUSSION NEEDED

• • Structural Setup - keep Presentation & Integration package-specific

@mhsdesign Could you please add the information regarding the new sorting we figured out during the sprint in Zurich? :)

Weighting of Service providers to be taken for account in „random“ ordering (we dont separate in two sections anymore)

Badgees monthly:

• Bronze 50€
• Silver 100€
• Gold 200€
• Platinum 400€
• Diamond 800€

Average estimated hours spent by active! Team member per week:

• 0 - 4 hours of weeklies (Tuesday or Wednesday or Friday (escr))
• 0 - 2 hours answering issues / slack / reviewing prs
• 0 - 3 hours developing things

Per moth average

~ 4 hours * 4 (weeks) = 16 = 2 days

This value might be lower for team members in agencies as they are allowed to spend generally a day on a month on Neos but even taking a day with 100€ an hour we get:

1 day * 8 * 100€ = 800€

So to guarantee the future of Neos and continuous development I presume that the value core team members contribute is invaluable and cannot really be measured by money and time.
To make this attractive for service providers we should make it the most valuable good.

My proposed ordering would be:

Additional weight in decimal (amount divided by 800 to make Diamond 1)

• Bronze 0,06
• Silver 0,12
• Gold 0,25
• Platinum 0,5
• Diamond 1

$weight = $numberOfActiveTeamMembers + $sponsoringWeight;

That would for example result in following weight (in order)

Platinum and 3 Team members = 3,5
Platinum and 1 Team member = 1,5
Gold and 1 Team member = 1,25
1 Team member = 1
Platinum = 0,5
Only Silver = 0,12
Nothing = 0

One thing is not taken to account: The company size. For a small company is one team member a very strong commitment, if you have a company with 50+ people, it doesn't take that much into account.

I think this topic is one of the most complex one and we'll always have to deal with some kind of unfairnes
