Thanks @dylan this is well thought out, and I like how you tie it back to [this](https://gov.indexcoop.com/t/engineering-working-group-q3-roadmap/1962).

I feel like I don’t have enough context on some of these issues, and don’t want to vote with my silence, so here goes:

1. Who actually gets paid what; specifically?  
1.1. What’s the non-salary portion monthly (how much is discretionary)?  
1.2. What are the responsibilities of the other core contributors (one-liners even)?
2. What does Set provide and what do we provide in terms of engineering resources dedicated to The Coop (what’s the division of responsibility)?
3. If you had a larger budget, what are some incremental things you’d like to do to eliminate engineering constraints?
4. I’m looking for you to share your current thinking around how you see your WG specifically gaining autonomy given that it is the most Set-facing WG.
