I understand that the term "core" has triggered some old discussion that I am not aware of, but in my proposal it refers to the scope of the code to work on. > ...it's a hard metric to gauge.

Surely here too I left generic indications, because it seemed to me more than once to understand that the DSF board would not have too many problems in receiving new funds as long as they were destined for a specific objective. For example, imagine a sprint working on only one of the proposals you listed in your last talk, it could be a point that many may have an interest in financing directly.
