Contribution Guidelines + Proposals for New and Ongoing Projects

Love the initiative getting this post up @angel and the enthusiasm to build. YAGMI.

This community has got very big very quickly with no pre-planning up front. That presents a lot of challenges for how we organise to be successful. A really good read for thinking about this is @willblackburn 's post - If you want to go fast go alone, if you want to go far go together, if you want to go nowhere start a DAO.

Absolutely for anyone and everyone just building and as a community us supporting everything that is built by members in every way we possibly can. This is something already happening to a degree by providing a space for people to collaborate and also a platform to help promote those ideas.

Inline with @gjsyme 's thoughts, my feelings on where the distinction should lie re DAO vs community projects is where something is going to be branded under D_D. Any group should be able to propose a project that could sit under the D_D brand but they should seek first quorum/support from the DAO as whole.

The threshold for a project becoming a “Core Project” should have nothing to do with code standards, framework used, it should be is this inline with helping achieve our mission, values and goals, and does the community as a whole support this specific idea and the specific implementation being suggested.

The Core Team is not proposed to dictate these projects, it is proposed to implement the tooling and process required to make make decisions on what we create together as a community, as well as provide some direction and leadership early on, to keep us inline with our mission, values and goals.

Hopefully we can get support to move forward and start tackling this big questions in the coming weeks :slight_smile:
