jeffro256 submits CCS proposal for 3 months of full-time Monero/Seraphis dev work

jeffro2561 has submitted a new CCS proposal2 looking to work full-time on Monero/Seraphis3 development for 3 more months (Q2 2024):

I plan to continue work full-time moving towards a Seraphis testnet (and wallet if I have time). These next dev cycles will likely be spent on writing production-ready serialization code, adding support for validating Seraphis transactions to the Cryptonote core, adding database backing support for these transactions [..]

Total funding proposed: 171 XMR (USD 45/hr).

ETA: ~3 months (521 hours).

jeffro256 has contributed 57 merged commits4 to the Monero core repository (master) and also began working on the Seraphis migration project56.
