A Note on Submission Review
There were 33 submissions this month. After review, only eight were found to be eligible.
The two causes for exclusion were:
1) The submission was determined to belong to another grants category (x15)
2) The submission was not a public good (x10)
The submissions that were determined to belong to another grants category will be contacted over the next week and encouraged to submit to next month’s Ecosystem round. This month is unique because there is no Ecosystem round. Usually, these projects would have been relocated and still have seen a chance for funding.
The projects that were not Public Good will also be contacted in the next week. Hopefully, we can provide information to better guide them towards Public Goods small grants.
The eligibility criteria was outlined in the announcement post above.
Improving Clarity on Submission Criteria.
A general assessment is that:
- We can define what eligible projects are more clearly
- We can create a better awareness among those with applicable projects
- The review process should happen before submissions are posted, which allows feedback/corrections over a longer time frame.
The recent public goods call was a great brainstorming session on these three points, and they will be explored this term. Please DM @Coltron.eth or any PG steward with questions.
