Hey Simon,

I have and I generally like the idea — however I think a key difference between what is proposed there and the Funding Platform is how reserve funds and discretionary funds are seperated. If the curators have direct access to directing the reserve funds, I think existing members of the curation club are vulnerable to an attack that empties the reserve. By creating a barrier between the two pools of resources either by time releasing funds from the reserve into the discretionary pool, or introducing a time delay when the community votes to move funds from the reserve into the discretionary fund I think this issue is mitigated. With that mechanism in place, I don’t see why the two ideas would not be compatible.
