Proposal description
Dash Core software professionally packaged, tested, maintained, and delivered for the Fedora, CentOS, and RHEL linux platforms.
Overview
This is a request to fund a very modest Dash patronage to help offset some of the effort associated to the development and process of building, packaging, delivery, and maintenance of Dash Core code for the premier family of linux operating systems: Red Hat -- Fedora, CentOS and RHEL. I.e., "release engineering" for this family of operating systems. I have been building packages for this line of operating systems for over 8 months now and will continue to do so, proposal accepted or not. This is a plea to assist in my efforts as I improve and expand the scope of what I am already doing. Dash Core for Fedora, CentOS, and RHEL is already the easiest to install, update, and maintain and in the next 3 to 6 months the scope of what is packaged and delivered will only expand. Thank you for your support -t0dd

Is it not the same under all Linux distribution?
* Your software manager alerts you that a new version of Dash available, do you want to update it?
* You elect yes, and click a button.
* Done.
I want my Android app to be packaged right, with the right files landing in the right places with the right security settings delivered and updated from Google Play or F-Droid. Or from iTunes from Apple. The same standard should hold true for any desktop or server application.
Right now... you can have that experience if you run Fedora, CentOS, or RHEL. Because I built that.
If you run a masternode, it comes *close* to that experience... but is certainly the easiest masternode install and configure experience that is out there. Again, because I built that. I also fixed or enhanced packaging issues that... you don't see, but makes Dash core work better.
Some folks are just fine continuing down a path where installing and updating software is manual process involving browsing to a community webpage, downloading a a tarball or zip file and installing that. But a mature software platform needs to professionalize. This is what this is all about.
And there is much more planned (read the proposal). I hope that helps explain the effort better. Thanks for the question.

They don't have to browse anywhere, manually download something, then scp it to your masternode... It is simply available. Automatically and digitally signed and verified. Bliss! :)
