+#### 1. Research on Scaling
+
+Research objective: to find the most efficient implementation to scale swarms, using state of the art research (estimated: 2 weeks).
+
+
+**1 week:**
+
+- Fault tolerance algorithms and their implementations
+- Sharding algorithms
+- Cooperation / coordination algorithms
+
+**1 week:**
+
+- Report of findings
+- Comparative analysis and final decisions based on our findings for the direction of our implementation
+
+
+#### 2. Sharding and data forwarding implementation
+
+
+**A. 3 weeks: sharding and data forwarding**
+
+- 1 week: scaffolding and draft implementation
+- 2 weeks: review, testing and improvements
+
+
+**B. 2 weeks: writing integration-like tests to demonstrate the algorithms at scale**
+
+- 1 week: benchmarking network behavior
+- 1 week: documentation and results
+
+
+#### 3. IPFS integration
+
+
+**Estimated 1 week:**
+
+- Implementation of all IPFS features for a swarm / testing
+- Documentation and guides to easily use the IPFS features (tweak library accordingly if necessary)
+
+
+#### 4. Extendability of library
+
+**Estimated 2 weeks:**
+
+- Provide capabilities to take snapshots of networking state and send to remote server including logs
+- Testing and documentation
+- Touching up and miscellaneous
+
+This brings us to total estimation of 10 weeks with a 1.5 FTE. With hourly rates revised to 60 USD/hr at 40 hour per week, our estimations come to a 2400 USD (1 FTE) + 1200 (0.5 FTE). This brings the total to 36,000 USD for Milestone 2, to fund the work of a Lead Engineer + Protocol Researcher (Adedeji) and Project Lead + Developer (Sacha) required to ship the libraries' features for this milestone.
