Documenting DAO structure and processes

🗳️ Meta-Governance General Discussion
#1

Pre-launch, I put together the governance docs with crucial information about the DAO, and I’ve been maintaining it by updating it with proposals as they’re proposed and executed. However, there’s a lot of new information that isn’t captured there, particularly around the steward elections - who is currently a Steward in each working group, any WG-specific docs, a list of sub-WGs and their contact people, etc.

Would someone be prepared to take on responsibility for creating and updating this documentation to reflect the state of the DAO?

Hi all,

I’m happy to contribute here and support continual documentation of current state of DAO and stewards / working group information. Happy to also work with @natebeck and his meta-gov subgroup initiative to create broader governance frameworks and plans as those mature.

My plan:

  1. Create first draft of updated/incremental governance docs
  2. Share in #meta-governance Discord for feedback
  3. Work with @nick.eth to get this updated on docs site

Feedback / guidance on above appreciated. With ETHDenver next week, hoping to have steps #1 and #2 complete within a week or so. Should be a quick turnaround for step #3 afterwards.

Looking forward to helping,
Dan

Just submitted a change request for review.

Major change was I added a “DAO Structure” section that highlights Q1/Q2 2022 Stewards, and also brings in the established Working group and steward rules from EP4. I thought it would be helpful to formalize these working group/steward rules from EP4 somewhere on the docs (and not have them just sit in the EP4 forum post forever). I changed some of the formatting and numbering of the rules… happy to switch this back to numbering from forum post if need be.

Given that sub-groups are still being worked out I did not include any detail there yet, but we can add pretty easily.

Open to any feedback on structure/layering of this information within the docs! Just want to make sure we can give proper visibility while maintaining a clean docs structure.

This looks great - thank you! I left a couple of minor comments.

Edit: I was able to get access by creating a new Gitbook Account with a different e-mail and using the invite link. Not working using an account with previously assigned permissions. Tried all the standard browser troubleshooting tricks.

I have detailed information on the Community WG, subgroups and we’re working on onboarding docs that I might be able to add. The Code of Conduct should be ready for DAO review, pending a final edit.
