It seems I reformatted the old deliverables, which caused the actions to fail?

Thanks for the delivery, @AurevoirXavier, but it looks like you are submitting changes to multiple unrelated files with your PR. It'd be great if your PR only included the delivery document you want to submit.

Hey @AurevoirXavier ,
I noticed that the default section for the link to your application document is not adjusted correctly. Please delete the default wording and link to your application file :)
Thanks!

I was still wondering why the CI failed. Stupid mistake. 😅

@PieWol Hi, could you please let me know if there’s an estimated time for this to be evaluated?

Hey @aurexav ,
sorry for the delay. The evaluation will start this week. Hope that works for you.

Congratulations on completing the first milestone of this grant! As part of the Grants Program, we want to help grant recipients acknowledge their grants publicly. To that end, we've created a badge for projects that successfully deliver their first milestone. Please use the badge only in reference to the work that has been completed as part of this grant, so please do not display it on your team or project's homepage unless accompanied by a short description of the grant. Furthermore, you're now welcome to announce the grant publicly. Please remember to observe the foundation's guidelines in doing so. If you haven't already, reach out to [email protected] for feedback on your announcement and cross-promotion.

Thank you for your contribution, and good luck! If you have any remaining milestone, let us know if you encounter any delays by leaving a comment on the application PR or submitting an amendment.

We noticed that this is the last milestone of your project. Congratulations on completing your grant! 🎊

So, where to from here? First of all, you should join our Grants Community chat, if you haven't already, so we can stay in touch.
If you are looking for continuative support for your project, there are quite a few options. The main goal of the W3F grants program is to support research as well as early-stage technical projects. If your project still falls under one of those categories, you might want to apply for a follow-up grant. However, depending on your goals and project status, there are other support programs in our ecosystem that might be better suited as the next step. For example, projects with a Business Case/Token should look into the Substrate Builders Program or VC Funding and Common Good projects have a good chance of receiving Treasury Funding. If you are looking for guidance, the team at https://substrate.io/ecosystem/square-one/ has compiled a list of ecosystem support sources and are happy to help you navigate it.

For a more comprehensive list, see our Alternative Funding page. Let us know if you have any questions regarding the above. We are more than happy to point you to additional resources and help you determine the best course of action.
Lastly, we hope your W3F grant was a success and we want to thank you for being part of the journey!
