+Who
+Hello Monero community, I'm oneiric, and I've been working on Kovri since December 2017.
+
+This is my first FFS proposal to the community, and I intend to make many more (if the community will have me). I'm in it for the long haul. Privacy is incredibly important to me, and I want to do everything I can to help Kovri and Monero. These projects are some of the strongest tools the common person will have in achieving freedom and financial privacy.
+
+What
+I am submitting this proposal to continue work with anonimal on bringing Kovri to release and integration, and to be funded as a part-time junior developer.
+
+Contributions:
+
+Over the past few months, I have collaborated with anonimal, rehrar, and others to make contributions to Kovri.
+
+Identity: use Boost DateTime when creating router keys: replace sprintf and C date functions with Boost DateTime when creating router keys
+Build: fix mingw warnings: resolve Windows compiler warnings
+Configuration::ListParameter unit-tests: unit-tests for class used to parse Kovri configuration
+SSU: support IP address size for peer test packets: get and set IP address size for SSU peertest packets
+Build: fix Doxygen build: small CMake fix for building Doxygen documentation
+AddressBook: Container for host-address entry: first attempt at a container class for an AddressBook hostname-address pair
+AddressBook + HTTP Proxy: store only unique subscription addresses
+AddressBook: add address to file I/O refactor + add exception handling: change how addresses are added to storage, and throw on filesystem errors
+HTTPMessage: refactor jump service parser + add test-cases: change how the HTTP proxy handle jump service requests, and add unit-tests. One of my first contributions, and required a large amount of collaboration with anonimal (many thanks).
+IdentityEx: lowerbounds check on buffer creation: bounds check on the supplied buffer, ensure it is large enough to hold a serialized IdentityEx class
+Standing on the shoulders of giants:
+
+Assistant for Kovri Project Management
+Create End-User Kovri documentation
+rehrar's 2018 Q1 Kovri proposal
+anonimal's Kovri Full Time Development funding thread
+Proposal for Kovri Dev
+MILESTONES & PROPOSAL
+Milestones
+In collaboration with anonimal:
+
+Create an enhanced form of the Kovri testnet
+Integrate Kovri testnet with live tests
+Write tests for 100% coverage on new and existing stable code
+Remaining 0.1.0-alpha release milestones
+Other tasks anonimal assigns
+Compensation & Time Estimates
+Amount: 27 XMR (0.225 XMR/hour * 40 hours + 0.45 XMR/hour * 40 hours)
+
+The amount I am requesting is based on similar FFS proposals, and average base-pay for a junior developer.
+
+In order for the community to get to know my work, I am willing to give a discounted (50%) rate for the first 40 hours (1 month @ 10 hours/week) of paid work.
+
+The goal is to complete the milestones by DefCon 26, whatever it takes.
+
+Any time more than 10 hours/week, I will volunteer to achieve the stated goals.
+
+To get an idea of my dedication to accomplishing these goals, average time spent on Kovri in April-May was ~50-60 hours/week.
+
+Let's Discuss
+I am new to the project and community, and welcome feedback on this proposal.
