# [Retroactive] Subsquare maintenance proposal for bifrost 2024

SubSquare is a governance platform for substrate based blockchains, and we have been continually maintaining the deployments for Bifrost including para chains on polkadot and kusama. We propose a treasury spend to support the work.

## Work scope

Our request will cover:
- Labor cost for daily monitor to keep the deployment well running.
- Infrastructure including servers, email services cost.
- New release deployments.
- UI tweaks and bug fixes related to hydration.

We won't request new common features development from para chain teams since most of them are funded by the polkadot/kusama treasury. Part of them include:
- Preimages management.
- New OpenGov referenda and templates.
- Treasury spends category support.
- Account and profile page enhancements.
- Statistics on referendum detail page.
