+# 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.
+
+* CLI: Auto-updater. Updates downloading and verification functionality (will verify gitian signatures additionally to the GUI auto-updater features https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/jfanxi/gui_v01711_oxygen_orion_is_now_available_via_the/)
+* GUI: Docker Windows static build: Qt 5.15 support
+* GUI: Reproducible Windows builds (docker)
+* GUI: Send to multiple addresses (related discussion https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/issues/740)
+
+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
+* https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/merge_requests/157
+
+During the recent 30h/week proposal i implemented:
+* Docker Monero GUI Windows static build.  
+  A user can now run just a couple of commands to build Monero GUI Windows static binary:  
+  https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/#building-windows-static-binaries-with-docker-any-os  
+* Finished CMake integration: using CMake for all Monero GUI build targets now.  
+* Docker Monero GUI Linux static builds - implemented Qt 5.15 support.  
+* Docker Monero GUI Android build - updated to Qt 5.15, CMake support.  
+  https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/#building-android-apk-with-docker-any-os-experimental  
+* Reproducible Monero GUI Linux builds *Work In Progress*
+
+in order to not clutter the proposal i'm not listing all the related pull requests. 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.
