I hear is what you’re saying, however, I think it’s important to acknowledge that: participating in community doesn’t (and shouldn’t imo) only mean being in discord. They may not have spent a huge amount of time in discord recently, but they’ve created IRL social layers which have allowed folks in the DAO to do things like leave their country for the first time, get on a plane for the time, go to their first conference and meet their friends at dinners and parties.
Very open to others helping organise these events typically. This happens per event anyway, but, this requires a fair amount of work it is not a committee! Typically we’ve worked with local Members who have local knowledge when organising; this would be the “core team”, so to say, to ensure events happen.
So these are the folks who helped organise most of the previous events we’ve had (especially the successful ones i.e. Dam), typically with some help from knowledgable local Members on the ground in each city. Given these are the folks who have done this well in the past with far more constraints (can’t accept/pay fiat, have an entity to sign a contract - so did this all themselves) I’m have no doubts they can again with less constraints. As mentioned, very open to others helps and imagine this will happen anyway in each city.
Maybe we should account for that in the $CODE budget?
Having a core group of 4 is intentional to spread the work. No one has a specific role and all work wil be shared between us, as it has been for previous events, depending on availability. Note, this groups are already attending the events we plan to host VIBES IRL at which makes this far far easier.
We’re operating this as an Sub-DAO with an external entity so there are is no wind conditions as it will be a multi-sig and bank account associated with a company I run that already has 3 signers. We’re also asking the $CODE remain in the DAO’s treasury for transparency so would be no code to return if unused.
See clarification below from P-22: DAO Governance Structure Upgrade
We would, however, need to get a Contributor Agreement listing the details of this proposal in Exhibit A.
