Are those bounties still outstanding (just saw the printed ones are nearly identical to https://fqa.9front.org/appendixb.html)? I'm not a C programmer, but a SOC guy - however, thinking that a little more sauce on the kitty (increasing the bounties) may be beneficial. Those are the three I am interested in - let me know if there is something more pressing for the project that needs focus.

We have a vpx/h264/av1 decoder/encoder working and that's stated there, but I'm almost sure the request was for an inhouse library (and that's why the bounty is still there even though we can decode, play and encode video) and another caveat on that one is that I'm almost sure the person that put that bounty there is dead. I know there's still people wanting a proper inhouse ssh server since people were using a hacky one written in go, but you're reading the TLS part wrong: it's already done and it's missing on payments, anything below the "DONE (pay up, deadbeats) " part is stuff that we already have but the person that put the bounty there either didn't pay or did not update us about the bounty being already paid, this is due to the bounty board being 100% put up by people on ml/irc saying they want stuff and the fact that 9front.org "itself" does not hold the money to pay up the bounty. As for increasing the bounties, this is all a community effort, 9front isn't funded by anyone besides our time and money and the general community wisdom nowadays is that increasing them isn't making people do it, and bounties aren't enforced by 9front so any way this might happen is convincing people that putting more money on the line is worthwhile.
