I’d need to ask the man (trying to get him to join Nostr. He is curious) . I know it was around 10-15k. Office space for Tim, some salary and a NexT station is all I know.

The person who received the proposal had just been promoted to head his own team. Tim was sending the proposal around to a few heads and he took the bait.

He does not like talking about the birth of the web much these days. He felt betrayed after Tim accidentally lost the archive (oops) rebuilt everything by himself to the best of his knowledge, left and then claimed nobody at CERN helped him. They still communicate, but once in a blue moon.

He’s more focused on his weird particle physics ideas and the censorship it has received in the past (arXiv at the request of CERN, supposedly). I think the interest for Nostr comes from there.

Web proposal was around 1989 I think…

I meant the man who received the proposal, not Tim.

Word is Tim has some health issues…
