Despite the increased price, we support this proposal as it aims to bring more people & especially developers into the Polkadot ecosystem.

I'm not sure the big spend on accommodation, flights, etc are good investment. Can this program be totally online?

It's critical to bring new developers into the ecosystem who truly understand the differentiating aspects of Polkadot. While a big spend, it's difficult to accomplish this without the "heavy lift" of a selective in-person program.

PBA is point of entry for many developers in the ecosystem and we need lots and lots more developers, should be funded.

The more teaching channels the better, will like to see a path for universities to latch into this programs, maybe even incentivizing them.

Costly? Yes. Useful? Also useful. I think it's the best way we have right now to bring developers and new projects to the ecosystem.

I understand how critical this is. So I'm happy to see this proposal pass, but I'll abstain considering the price tag. I'm looking forward to new education initiatives in the ecosystem.
