Bonjour,
During the [videoconference concluding the generic grant application… ](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/16518), it was decided that @zeripath and @techknowlogick will apply to the [NLnet Next Generation Search and Discovery](https://nlnet.nl/discovery/) call for proposal for a total amount of 50K€. Should the proposal be accepted the work could begin around January 1st, 2022.
This issue will contain the draft of the proposal, its final version and all communications with NLnet (only redacted for privacy) for the sake of transparency.
The action items are distributed as follows:
* @dachary :
* :white_check_mark: Write down a [NGI Zero Discovery NLnet](https://nlnet.nl/discovery/) draft [application](https://demo.hedgedoc.org/gIyguVYPQyqQnnsw39sEhQ#), reusing material from the generic grant application
* Select tasks that can fit in the NLnet budget
* @techknowlogick: provide a bio in [the generic grant application](https://demo.hedgedoc.org/K8IDhSxJShOCOWEKILGZeA?view)
* @zeripath @techknowlogick: provide an hourly/daily rate
* @zeripath @techknowlogick: proofread the [NLnet application](https://demo.hedgedoc.org/gIyguVYPQyqQnnsw39sEhQ#) draft
The proposal will be submitted by @zeripath as the primary contact.
Cheers
