Asking publicly: @ensdomains , why does my grant got DECLINED to participate in @gitcoin ENS ecosystem round?
After interacting with gitcoin support for a few days, they said they were waiting for the response from the (ENS) team to look at the project (which I agree)

and today they got a response: "going to decline for now" with no more explanations.
I don't want to point fingers at anyone in particular because there may be the case of simply some misunderstanding, and I don't know who analyzed the request.

but I have to complain, Otterscan has been supporting ENS since its first versions because I thought it was an essential feature for a block explorer.
you can use ENS names on whatever type of search variants we support, and addresses got reverse-resolved wherever they appear,

be it on tx fields, inside decoded input parameters or logs.

it is even featured at ens integrations page (I didn't ask for it; brantly was in charge of community at that time, he asked me he wanted to add this integration there) 
so I strongly disagree with that decision and I feel highly disincentivized to support more ENS features in the future if that's the case.
cc: @nicksdjohnson @avsa is there anything can be done here?
UPDATE: just got an update email from gitcoin saying they’ve just got an update from ENS team; they’ve reverted their decision and my grant is now included in the ecosystem round, so I consider it now solved.
