Maintenance & Support Python Libraries (April to September 2023)
For the last three years, Polkascan Foundation has been maintaining the Polkadot related Python libraries, such as py-substrate-interface, py-scale-codec and several Python bindings for cryptographic RUST crates used by Substrate. These client libraries are essential for Python developers to interact with any Polkadot, Kusama or other Substrate based chain. As of writing 265 Github repositories and 21 Python packages are depending on our libraries. With this treasury proposal, we are asking retroactive funding for our activities in the period April until September 2023. This averages out to approximately 4135 euro per month spent on development and tech support activities.
Current Progress and Comments:
A retroactive proposal which seeks to support the python libraries developed by the Polkascan foundation. Quite used by several active developer parties, this proposal had significant opposition specially from Ivy Network which it was supported mostly by 16DG aka Giotto and many smaller parties too.
