after much deliberation, I decided to vote against this proposal in its current form for 2 reasons:
-
Proposal needs closer review - as some stewards pointed out, and as @ceresstation noted in his post here we need a formal process for how we conduct swaps. I’d like to take this chance to bump up in priority the call for a mutual grants review committee and include Wonder as our first candidate for review. this is to ensure Gitcoin remains credibly neutral and have an unbiased approach to conducting these token swaps as we are not only committing to help provide funds to the project but also to become a partner in each others’ journey through governance. I’d like to work with @Pop and @ceresstation to make this a reality as soon as we can!
-
Procedural - per the new governance rules, after stewards have given comments, an updated proposal needs to be available on the forum and then finally be posted onto the snapshot. this is to ensure consistency and as part of keeping processes open and preserved for posterity.
a path forward would be to 1) engage the Wonder team for a revised proposal 2) update the proposal by working closely with stewards that volunteered to be on the mutual grants committee 3) post on forum and proceed with the voting process
