Resolves YES if by August 31, Manifold does not charge fees on trades on yes/no markets. NO otherwise.

This will resolve YES if/when the change is made, even if it is later reverted, as long as the change is intentional.

Currently, all fees are paid to the question author. But authors also get a bonus for each bettor (recently added). So the fees to incentivize creating markets seem much less important now. And of course fees disincentivize trading, so removing them and potentially adjusting the author rewards to compensate might be better.
