Thanks for the update, @lawmeskiviahs. We will look into it as soon as possible.

Could you update the PR with the contents of our pull request template? That will make things a bit easier on our end.

[lawmeskiviahs]

Thankyou for the reply, @semuelle The update has been done. Kindly look into it.

Thanks for the updated application, and I will mark it as ready for review. However, as you have clearly seen, we got another application from another team in the meantime: #1731 Given that your application copies a lot of the other application, I personally would prefer the "original" application, but others might have a different opinion so I will share it with the rest of the team.

Thanks for the review @Noc2. We had put in a proposal earlier #1712. The current application is just an update of the previous one with the requested changes. Kindly take this into account.

Thanks for the update here and all the effort you put into this. However, the grants committee decided to go ahead with the other application: #1731. I'm therefore closing this one. However, I strongly encourage you to apply for another project. For example, we are generally interested in supporting the development of all kinds of ink! related tools. Let me know if you have any questions.
