Complete the FAQs section for Node Operators in the guide documentation.
Must the results of this project be entirely open source (MIT, GPL, Apache, CC BY license or similar)? If not, which parts will not be, why, and under what license will they be published?
Yes, a requirement for this bounty is that the code be submitted as a pull request to GitHub - rocket-pool/docs.rocketpool.net: Rocket Pool Documentation & Guide Hub .

If the bounty is successfully completed, how does this help people looking to run a Rocket Pool node for the first time?
New node operators tend to have a lot of questions, and as thorough as the guides are, they still have some gaps that require specialized, directed questions and answers. The site has an FAQs section but it is woefully out of date so it doesn’t do a good job of answering questions from first-time node operators. Embellishing it akin to the support bot in Discord would go a long way to helping build confidence for node operators who are unsure about certain things and don’t know / don’t want to reach out to the support channel.
If the bounty is successfully completed, how does this help people already running a Rocket Pool node?
Same as above, though to a lesser extent.
If the bounty is successfully completed, how does this help the Rocket Pool community?

Will the results of the completed bounty be open source?
Yes, they will be required to be open sourced on GitHub - rocket-pool/docs.rocketpool.net: Rocket Pool Documentation & Guide Hub .
Work and Verification
What steps would be entailed in completing the bounty? Do successful examples of such work exist elsewhere?
Completing the bounty will involve modifying the source code for the documentation website and submitting a pull request.
Specifically, it will involve editing the following page:
At the very least, porting over the common prompts from the support bot would be a start; I expect this is a good exercise for most of our experienced community members to aggregate questions they’ve frequently answered though, including ones the bot doesn’t have.
How long is the proposed bounty available for? Is it awarded to the first team to successfully claim it, or is it in some way divided among all such successful claims in the proposed availability period?
I will accept multiple submissions for this bounty, and the payout will be split based on the amount of content and thoroughness of the answers that each one provides.
Who will test any products submitted for claiming the bounty?
Me (JCRTP).
What is the acceptance criteria for awarding of the bounty?
Bounty payout will be at the scrutiny of me (JCRTP) predicated on review to both verify the answers and confirm the submission meets the quality standards for our documentation.
Payment
How much RPL is the applicant requesting for successful completion of the bounty?
TBD pending discussion with the rest of the GMC but I’m expecting something in the neighborhood of 2-4 RPL per question and answer.
Conflict of Interest
Does the person or persons proposing the bounty have any conflicts of interest to disclose? (Please disclose here if you are a member of the GMC or if any member of the GMC would benefit directly financially from the successful completion of the bounty).
Yes, I’m on the GMC and am a development team member. Writing this portion of the docs technically falls under my responsibility. I’m posting this as a way to incentivize the community to contribute in my stead since I believe it’s important after Shapella and I will not be able to complete it in a timely fashion.
Will the applicant, or any protocol or project in which the applicant has a vested interest (other than Rocket Pool), benefit financially if the bounty is successfully completed?
No.
