Agenda
  1. Announcements
    1. New Season!!
      1. Let’s put the fun back in fungible
      2. Hiro is ready to spend more time focusing here
    2. New member intro:
    3. Welcome Coordinators!
    4. bDIP-07: Go vote!
    5. Time change for Guild meeting - push back or move forward? (could be better in the evening? 5pm UTC? - Bruvton) >> short poll will go up (48-72 hrs)
    6. Book of the Season - bringing back the reason a lot of us got into writing, books
      1. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance (chosen for its reminder on the core element of quality)
      2. https://www.amazon.com/Zen-Art-Motorcycle-Maintenance-Inquiry/dp/0060839872/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
      3. Great book to use as a point of discussion for our goals etc, if you cannot purchase it please let Hiro know, can try to work something out for you
      4. Will use writer’s playground channel to discuss it
    7. RPGF funding
      1. https://gov.optimism.io/t/education-nominations-for-rpgf2/4640/132?u=hirokennelly (Applied for retroactive public funding for optimism - accepted)
      2. No consensus yet on how it will be distributed
      3. We have struggled to get sponsorships in the bear market, the question is always how do we navigate this - thinking to go straight to the ecosystems may be the way to go
    8. WG Cohort 3!
      1. March 22 Kickoff Meeting
      2. Going to try for GC funding first (for 1/2 of the required funds)
      3. but we still need to pay for S6 too out of our budget
        1. 500 stables
        2. 42K BANK
      4. Grant: Excited for new cohort, working on experience improvement, make it cleaner, simpler
      5. We have an impressive email list of interested folks from previous expressions of interest, find ways to bring them back in
      6. Ensure that there are true quantifiable results from cohort - create deeper DAO relationships, reignite writing passion
      7. Take advantage of the content created within the cohort - work with Bankless publishing
    9. CryptoNexus writing opportunities - Hiro to talk to Bo* again to pick the convo up, perhaps provide opportunities for community
    10. Web3 toolkit update - some toolkit topics still need writers, some have not submitted yet, CoolCat will nudge them
  1. Guild Updates
    1. Talent Office (anointingthompson1): 5pm UTC tomorrow talent coordination meeting
    2. Treasurer (Austin Foss): Payouts going out at end of the month, will follow up on notion changes, potential governance proposal - some people are not on payments list either because addresses are missing/not submitted, can there be a timer on how long people have to submit them or how many reminders they can receive before they are simply removed?
    3. Governance Coordinator (CoolCat): Currently utc+7 for the next few weeks, suggesting broad structure for governance async - requires a secure structure
    4. d. Education Coordinator (tomahawk): No time changes for live editing sessions
      e. Marketing Coordinator (WinVerse): Looking to do more twitter spaces, plan is to have them be on the most recently published articles; in talks with potential sponsor for weekly rollup newsletter, looking to sponsor ama’s & drive traction towards their brand
