Last Week’s Action Items

Ap0ll0 will get list together of current members that meet Scribe and Scribbler status based on previous remunerations

Additional discussion points from today's meeting need to be added to governance framework

We didn't get a chance to address off cycle elections and roles. We should complete this task async. Doc is 60%, let's work to get it 100% and reconvene next week.

1. Elections on cycle and off cycle
• All roles and multi sigs owners will remain in place with lazy consensus
A poll will go up if Scribes are ok with leaving role holders and if there is at least 1 objection, election process will start
• 1 week nomination period and 1 week election period will follow 1 objection from lazy consensus
Scribes can not nominate themselves. They must be nominated by another scribe
Nominees may accept or deny the nomination. If they accept, they must provide the following:
1. Contributions to the Guild and DAO
2. Qualifications for the position
3. Why they want to be elected
4. Additional sponsors (preferred, but not required)
When nominated, the Governance Coordinator will reach out to nominees and inform them of the process as a part of their responsibilities
We can use a 3rd party to collect nominees’ campaign statements and post them all at the same time
• 1 week election process will follow
Anonymized using poll master using rank choice voting
Even if there is only 1 nomination for a role, there will still be an election
It's important to ratify that role through governance
 

Notes

• Secretary and Guild Coordinator roles are up for ratification
A poll will go up today and be open for 48 hours. If 1 vote against ratifying roles, then election cycle will commence.
Please no chatter in polls channel, there will be a new thread started for poll conversations

• Talent Scout is up for nomination
After Guild Coordinator and Secretary polls are complete, week long nomination process will start for Talent Scout

• We still have some granular issues to address within the governance framework doc, hiro proposed that we address these in S3 at the beginning of S3 and regularly update the governance ASAP and continue to update it
We can continue to meet weekly as we have been doing, except the next 2 weeks
 
 
 

Action Items

Nonsense to post 2 separate polls for ratifying Secretary and Guild Coordinator

Jake and Stake will clean up the governance doc
