Grants talk:Project/Rapid/Juandev/Accessibility and improvement of VicuñaUploader

Comments from WMF

Hi Juandev, thanks again for submitting a Rapid Grant proposal to increase accessibility and make improvements on VicuñaUploader. We are excited about your plans to revive this tool. I reviewed your grant proposal and have a request that I'd like you to address:

• In the proposed budget, you mentioned that you would like to spend all requested funds for programming and software development. Could you please provide a more detailed breakdown of the approximate number of hours and corresponding tasks? This will allow us to better understand the amount of time and efforts you will put into this project and each task. Also, could you please add the responsible person for each task?

Looking forward to hearing from you. All the best, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 15:44, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you, I will have a look at it and let you know, once it's done. Juandev (talk) 21:52, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

So I have added that as you had requested. Juandev (talk) 08:51, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Request for extension

Dear WMF,

I would like to ask for an extension of the deadline for the end of the grant project until March 31, 2022. The reason is the fact that we are late and have only just completed phase 1 and issued a functional version (see the release announcement on Wikimedia Commons). This should be followed by phase 2, in which we will collect feedback from users, compare it with previously collected suggestions and then create another version in which we will incorporate these suggestions.

The reason for the delay was that my colleague Ondřej did not start working on the software at all, so I was looking for someone else and found the user Exander77. He began to address the issue four months after the start of the grant. Juandev (talk) 09:18, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello Juandev, thanks for posting your request. I have reviewed and formally approved it. The new grant end date is March 31, 2022, and the final report is due on April 30, 2022. Best regards, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 15:23, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Juandev (talk) 15:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
