Gitcoin Forum Improvement Project

The next steps for the forum, which I am suggesting implementing for Season 14.

Create standard categories that moderators will actively manage:

  • DAO Governance and Metagovernance (to be merged with the Metagovernance category)
  • Vision, goals, roadmaps, and partnerships (to be merged with the Proposal category)
  • Budgets and financial matters
  • Ideas and open discussion ( to be merged with the Workstream discussion category)
  • User and Community Experience (how to / tooling)
  • Grants
  • Products
  • Newsletter, Digest, and Daily thread (to be merged with the Community hangout category)

Create tags to notify appropriate stakeholders about the new post;
That enables any stakeholder to set up the notifications based on those tags or search for the tag within the forum and target only relevant posts.

There will be three categories of Tags - standard, technical, and vibes. The community will manage those tags to ensure that we are not excluding any stakeholders.

Additional material to be created:
How to write new post and determine what category and tag to use.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments on the suggested changes and approach.
