The IMC is better able to do its job with this data.
Previously Val was getting this data by hand very roughly once a week and it took ~30 minutes or so for the 3 chains. This is saving Val significant time he can use on other RP stuff.

How did the project or work for which the retrospective award would be given how does this help RPL holders?

None.

Payment

How much RPL is the applicant requesting be awarded to the recipient?

$1000? The direct impact is very focused which makes me think low, but it made for more Val time and slightly happier-at-RP Val. 2 hours of Val time a month for a year would be a good buy at this price I think. Worth a quick chat with ramana to see if this feels reasonable.

Conflict of Interest

Does the person or persons requesting the retrospective award have any conflicts of interest to disclose? (Please disclose here if you are a member of the GMC or if you have nominated a member of the GMC for this retrospective award).
