I dont ask for taking the most buget room there is, butthis is the money of all dash stakeholders and we all want it to be spent efficiantly, I guess. Taking two separate rooms in the venue when there is at least half prized rooms just over the corner is a bit weird in my perception.As I understand Evan and David both belong to the core team. I would have no problem at all for raising their reimbursment (i.e. salary) for the work they do since the team is doing great work and is worth every penny! With this extra money they could easily upgrade their room to the now choosen one.Oh, and regarding the burn rate. Burning money is not a good thing for itself neither is a high burn rate.If there a not enough projects worth spending money, we should not seek to burn the money in every possible way. The network could save the money for a while and when it becomes clear that this situation will prevail, just change the resource allocation accordingly (i.e. lowering the amount of dash provided for project funding).
