# What
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Would love to prolong my part time Monero coding for another 3 months.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are some specific tasks i would like to work on first.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Monero GUI Windows static build.
|
||
|
|
Plan to utilize cross-compilation using recently implemented Docker Monero GUI Linux static build environment.
|
||
|
|
If there will be any unresolvable issue, we can use Windows native Docker container (based on Windows Server image), but the approach will require using Windows as a host system.
|
||
|
|
* Investigate (and implement if possible) Monero GUI MacOS bundle build environment.
|
||
|
|
* Reproducible Monero GUI Linux build.
|
||
|
|
Depending on the first task, might also implement Windows reproducible builds, this is unclear at the moment.
|
||
|
|
* Explore Windows GUI binaries signing with a Microsoft certificate.
|
||
|
|
Could help us to mitigate AV related issues on Windows.
|
||
|
|
Figure out the procedure and the requirements.
|
||
|
|
Signing doesn't play well with reproducibility. Think this could be resolved by using/implementing some custom software or a script that will verify signed binary contents skipping the signature. Want to investigate this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As usual will be working on Monero Core and Monero GUI code:
|
||
|
|
* Inspecting and implementing ongoing feature requests
|
||
|
|
* Submitting bug fixes
|
||
|
|
* New functionality
|
||
|
|
* Code review
|
||
|
|
* Putting my efforts where it is appropriate
|
||
|
|
|

# Who
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I'm Xiphon, active contributor to Monero Core and Monero GUI since July 2018.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
My previous CCS proposals:
|
||
|
|
* https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/merge_requests/99
|
||
|
|
* https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/merge_requests/55
|
||
|
|
* https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/merge_requests/122
|
||
|
|
* https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/merge_requests/139
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
During the recent 30h/week proposal i implemented:
|
||
|
|
* Docker Monero GUI Linux static build. CMake integration.
|
||
|
|
`release` build target support (Linux, Windows, MacOS).
|
||
|
|
`release-static` build target support (Linux and Windows).
|
||
|
|
CMake continuous integration (Github Workflows) support on Linux, Windows, MacOS hosts.
|
||
|
|
A user can now run just a couple of commands to build Monero GUI Linux static binary:
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
* Socks5 support in Monero GUI Advanced mode (remote node only) *(Work in progress)*
|
||
|
|
Runtime proxy configuration support in Monero Core Wallet API.
|
||
|
|
Integrating Socks5 proxy support into the GUI right now.
|
||
|
|
* Portable mode for Monero GUI

in order to not clutter the proposal i'm not listing all the related pull requests this time. I strongly encourage you to visit the following Github links to see the amount of work done by me, its quality and importance for the Monero Project.

# Proposal
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Looking forward to coding and accomplishing mentioned and ongoing tasks and issues. Implementing new code/functionality that will be needed. Investigating bug reports and submitting bug fixes, fixing build and compilations errors/warnings/etc. Would like to inspect and complete/fix/address issues and feature requests that are reasonably desired and/or worth to spend time on. Improving GUI, fixing UI/UX issues, implementing design changes.

|
|
Dedicate 30 hours per week to Monero Project, at 55 USD/hour rate for a total of 215 XMR. XMR/USD rate is based on the 14-day moving average exponential on Kraken from 20 Aug 2020, which is approximately 92.16 XMR/USD.
