It’s always interesting to see members of our community step up to address perceived governance gaps. However, in this case, it seems we’re trying to fix something that isn’t broken.
Your proposal, though ambitious, is redundant with the current processes we have in place, which are functioning well thanks to @willyfox and others. We already have a committee system that involves the necessary parties and manages the process efficiently. Willy’s detailed forum post sheds light on this, and frankly, it feels like you’re proposing a solution in search of a problem.
Tl;dr: This is neither decentralized nor a good process.
Adding more bureaucratic layers, as suggested in your proposal, will only slow us down, complicating what is already a comprehensive process. The DAO environment is dynamic; we can’t afford to get bogged down in unnecessary procedural intricacies. Qualified candidates won’t hang around for an extended, convoluted hiring process.
The outcomes to your suggestions… is pretty much exactly what we’re doing right now thanks to @willyfox 's efforts.
There already is a committee of
- current workstream leaders
- the team being hired for.
- willy managing the process
Could probably do explain the same on a governance call and that would round out all the saber rattling for transparency, because there isn’t anything to hide. Qualified candidates are not going to wait around to get paid for more than a month, this change would almost guarantee that as the minimum time.
An increased focus on AMAs for transparency makes sense, but let’s not kid ourselves—this isn’t about transparency. It’s about efficiency and effectiveness in decision-making.
Yeah Nah
Regarding accountability, it’s somewhat amusing to me. Our workstream leaders are already held to high standards by FOX holders. Remember the budget votes? They were anything but a walk in the park. So, I’m not sure what additional oversight you’re envisioning here.
Your proposed timeline also seems to be a bit out of touch with reality. Managing human schedules and decision-making processes is far more complex than what’s outlined in your plan. This isn’t just about adding time to hiring; it’s about recognizing the operational realities of the DAO.
The brass tacks
Lastly, your absence from governance calls for an extended period and then jumping back in with such a proposal does raise an eyebrow, or a dozen. It’s vital to stay connected and understand the current processes and dynamics before suggesting sweeping changes.
Definitely want to applaud the effort put into a proposal! However I strongly believe it misses the mark in understanding our current operations and needs. Instead of reinventing the wheel, why not focus on areas where improvement is genuinely needed? Let’s direct our energies more productively rather than over complicating things.
