RE: The 2020 STEMsocial roadmap

I read your comment and reached here... I think it's a really cool idea to have a MVP before reaching the end users and start onboarding them.
But actually, I think that it would be awesome to start raising awareness about this project before hand between it's targeted audience... For instance in my collage there are lots of computer science students who forms groups to develop software just because they like it. For instance you could break down some of the tasks needed in small projects and reach some of those groups and sponsor a competition within the collage to get the best product from the students there... It would be great to do some nice branding of hive and get solutions to the lack of time and limited human resources you guys have.
This is actually already on-going. We are trying to reach out potential users on Facebook and Twitter, trying to bring good STEM authors here.
Concerning delegating tasks, the major problem is that this would mean spending time for free. I don't know many devs happy to do so. However, any help is welcome, especially when (if) we will move to Vue.
Thanks again for your nice suggestions!
But I have not to be like a free offer, you can sell the business model to the developers and offer them a proportional share according to their contribution for a certain time window... Of course, most people don't do things for free, that's why I suggested to hosting a competition within some collages to offer one prize for the winners who manage to deliver the best products (way more cheaper than hiring actual pros and maybe a more efficient way to advertise the project and the platform as a whole)
I am not so open to competitions, for the simple reason that we organised a few during Steem times, years ago. The outcome was really, not so great :/
