External dependency: EP 6.49: key milestones depend on ENSv2 shipping to mainnet, and the committee accounted for this in the negotiated milestone structure. A slip here is not a delivery failure.
Why the committee funded this
One of the ecosystem's primary subname infrastructure teams: SDKs, APIs, CCIP gateways, and custom deployments including Celo, Filecoin and Rootstock. The award reflects the counterfactual: no comparable subname infrastructure exists at this scale, and the ENSv2 transition makes that work time-critical.
SPP2 subname issuance exceeded target by more than an order of magnitude, but the committee noted that figure is concentrated in a small number of large deployments.
Commitments
Provisional, not confirmed. These 25 milestones were extracted from the provider's own SPP3 application and are what they proposed. The binding set is Award Notice Item 5, which is not yet in the committee workspace. Every entry was checked against a verbatim quote from the source document; none is committee-confirmed, and none counts toward the 80% completion metric until reconciled. Delivery status is not assessed here; see the provider's filed reports.
