v1docq47: video creation / translations into russian (february - july)
Greeting everybody again!
Thank you for supporting my previous FFS. Possibly something went wrong, not like I planned it, but during working process I sincerely tried to improve every video and translation, investing part of my soul in my work.
Who?
I am v1docq47, member of XMR.RU team
I participate and take active part in Monero Localization and Monero Outreach working groups.
Since September 2017 I translate into Russian everything related to Monero. Recently I started to make teaching and news videos about Monero for Monero Russian Community YouTube channel.
This is the shortlist of my Monero localization works:
This is the shortlist of my works for Monero Russian Community YouTube channel:
What?
In my first FFS I was too optimistic and didn’t realized what amount of time I will be spending to create simple but high quality videos, which are easy to understand for ordinary user.
This time I have 5 month experience and I will be realistic about my work.
I am planning to continue to help experienced and ordinary users to know something new. I have a lot of new ideas, which are just needed to be transferred from paper to screen.
I don’t want to stuck in routine work with videomaking, I will do my best to improve this format and do something interesting and unusual.
In addition to videomaking I will continue my Monero localization work.
Please don’t be confused with low amount of subscribers and views on my channel. I could buy views/subscribers, but it won’t be my own victory. I want to reach thousand audience by my own.
The Proposal and Milestones
I am planning to make 6-8 new videos per month for my channel for the next 6 months. These will be: news, manuals and other Monero information materials.
I still hope to add interviews to my channel as an extra format (despite I had some technical difficulties during first episode). Possibly it will be new format of short podcasts, but I need time to realize it.
In my spare time I will continue to localize Monero project for Russia.
How much and Payouts
Any kind of work must be paid, especially work which is pleasured for you and your viewer/reader.
Payment on first days of every month during 6 months for my upcoming work.
3$ hour/ ~30 hours a week or ~130 hours a month. Usually I spend much more spare time for my work.
Average Monero course for a month is ~50$
In total:
46.8 XMR for 6 month work's
7.8 XMR month starting from February
Merge request reports
Activity
@luigi1111 we discussed this during some past meetings, so I think it's good to merge.

Edited by v1docq47Hi everyone!

It's time to tell about work, I made in May.
I would like to start with the news that I and @Monerorus have started a website with Monero technical literature translations. We wanted to put out translations from Monero Research Lab and Breaking Monero into separate website-catalog for a long time. We appreciate technical and research works and we want everyone to have convenient and fast way to acquaint with them in Russian language.
Meet! docs.xmr.ru!
Thanks to Ryo for posting transcripts of three episodes Breaking Monero in their Medium account. At the moment two transcripts are translated to Russian language:

Hi everyone!
v1docq47 is here!
And this is my report for the first month of summer — June!
In June, I continued to translate technical and research literature within the Monero economy and ecosystem.
Thank you very much @lh1008 for publishing the missing episodes of Breaking Monero, now I can finish the translation and give everyone the opportunity to learn about the limitations of security and anonymity mechanisms in Monero.
At the moment, in June, the following episodes of Breaking Monero have been translated:
- Breaking Monero Episode 01: Introduction

In June, I continued to translate MRL research documents.
I never cease to be amazed at the research work done by MRL.
Translation of "MRL-0009: Thring Signatures and their Applications to Spender-Ambitious Digital Currencies" was much more difficult than I could imagine and is not yet complete.
In the near future, I plan to move completed documents from text format to LaTeX. For me it will be a new experience in my work.
In June, I completed work on the following MRL documents:
- MRL-0003: Monero is Not That Mysterious (on the review)
- MRL-0009: Thring Signatures and Their Applications for Spender-Ambiguous Digital Currencies (translation not completed)
