Crowd Funding Enhancements

We¹re definitely interested. The potential issue I have is that this stuff
was (mostly) promised from Kickstarter and indeed either planned and
specced or even being worked on. Mostly it will be delivered this year at
various points. You guys already backed us on Kickstarter and we can &
will be deliver. The only thing we could do would be to speed things up by
further expanding our dev team, which could bring delivery forward for
³pet² features. I guess we could crowd fund that.

So - here is an open question I don¹t know the answer to. Is there
appetite for this in the community? Or would you rather just wait now?
This really is at the ³thinking out loud stage², happy to get a range of
views as we talk about this internally some more.

Kind regards,

Kevin
