You’re suggesting he should extend the scope to include grin-wallet, or else submit it to the community fund instead. I interpret that as you not supporting the funding request in the current form. Sure, you could argue David should’ve tried harder to convince you otherwise, but the wording of all of your feedback about the funding request suggested that it would not have your approval without an attempt at a rust implementation, and pushes the erroneous idea that the council fund is for rust whereas the community fund is for everything else (topic starts here: keybase://chat/grincoin#general/32865)
It seems we may still be in disagreement about what an RFC is for. The RFC would’ve been implemented (in Grin++), just not in rust yet. We should probably rethink the RFC process at some point to make clearer the point of an RFC (e.g. is it for rust only, or for the Grin ecosystem as a whole).

I was asking a question, not making a statement. This multi-fund model is new territory for all of us and we are all still trying to figure it out. I didn’t mean to imply that because there was no rust work proposed that the request would not be considered.
Apologies @davidtavarez if it came across that way and discouraged you. I was more trying to encourage you to ask for more money and try to implement this feature in rust too.

To your point, I was actually mistaken during the meeting for this request. I was under the impression that RFCs needed to be implemented in the rust codebase (which was part of my initial hesitation), but according to RFC0001, there is no obligation for an implementation once an RFC is accepted.
I would encourage us to assume the best in each other while trying to find our way forward instead of assuming the worst. We still have a tough path ahead and it will only be harder when coming from a place that other parties that disagree are coming from a place of malice/ignorance and not concern/compassion.
I fully agree. Many past discussion went sour without any need for them to turn sour. We as community members all have our baggage and past experiences both from within Grin as well as outside of the project. In the end all community members are passionate and want to move Grin forward (else they would not be here), just in different ways. As long as we can respect these differences and recognize the underlying shared passion, Grin as a project will do fine and keep moving forward. In other words it is fine to disagree sometimes, there is no right or wrong, just different voices of reason which together are needed for the project.
We should have some faith in each-other.
