+# Summary
+
+The funding to date from NLnet via EU Grants has been amazing and resulted
+in significant development of Digitally-Sovereign VLSI designs.
+Continuing to further that initial research to create High Performance
+Compute for ultimate use in end-user products such as smartphones desktops
+laptops and Industrial Embedded PCs is clearly important.
+We therefore aim to further the IEEE754 Pipelines, associated Formal
+Correctness Proofs, and continue implementing unit tests, Simulator,
+Processor Core implementing Power ISA and Draft SVP64, as well as
+documentation and attending conferences.

Please be short and to the point in your answers; focus primarily on
the what and how, not so much on the why. Add longer descriptions as
attachments (see below). If English isn't your first language, don't
Foundation: this Grant Request focusses more on continuing to
*implement* that Scalable Vector Extension.
+With the entire project being 100% FOSSHW and managed strictly as a
+Libre Project under strict Full Transparency conditions the end result
+is a High-performance Processor Initiative that EU Citizens can trust.

# Have you been involved with projects or organisations relevant to this project before? And if so, can you tell us a bit about your contributions?
As mentioned in 2022-08-51,
# Explain what the requested budget will be used for?
+(Note having completed 2022-02-012 we meet the conditions for a
+larger budget request)

Whilst 2022-08-51 focusses on submitting SVP64 to the OpenPOWER ISA WG,
and satisfying Voting Members of its suitability, we need to proceed
with implementing SVP64 and underlying infrastructure:
