Michael, Thanks for your reply.
While I am sure that many would appreciate regular high quality blog posts, I am not convinced that writing them is a very effective use of my contract time.
What I am trying to say is that it is time well invested. When the users/donors see that you are doing a great job, they will donate more. These donations will exceed the cost for paying you to write. In the long term, I am hoping that your contract can be extended another 6 months, if you so wish.
In either case I'll try to come up with some balance of shorter status updates and regular, more elaborate blog posts.
I think that is very good. How about ending this month with a blog post explaining what you have accomplished so far and whats next on your agenda?
Keep up the good work! Patrik
