Our last xGov discussions have led to several changes in how we’ll approach xGov proposals for Voting Session 4, focusing on supporting public goods development and fostering growth within our ecosystem. Here’s an overview: Main Focus of xGov: xGov aims to fund public-goods proposals ( Things that…

[image] Maugli: Is there a clear view for the xGovs, what should be done now, if they would have 10 million USD for development? @scholtz , please list only the 10 most important, with approximate cost! If I would be in place of AF and had $10M to distribute for development, i would spend it …

It sounds like you are critical of the decision to stop up-front funding in xGov, but then you also seem to criticize past projects that were funded up front (through a different funding mechanism, of course, but still). So, what is your point? Do you love throwing money at projects on little more …

Releasing fund after finishing the deliverables will make sure two things. Only ecosystem committed devs will apply for funding(can avoid fund farmers) Completion of deliverables will ensure that the code base is available for future developers to work on.

[image] GhostOfMcAfee: So, what is your point? Do you love throwing money at projects on little more than a hope that they work out, or do you hate it? You can see from my message, that this is toy money compared to amount of money burned by AF.

So, again, I’m not seeing what your point is. You think up front funding is bad, because it led to questionable spends in the past, but you are upset that they are stopping up front funding now? It seems like cognitive dissonance.

[image] GhostOfMcAfee: It seems like cognitive dissonance. caused by the AF. " Gods may do what cattle may not", " i.e. “Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi”

i think he meant to say that the way how AF can handle distribution of algos is quite inefficient xgovs is better system where AF just set some rules and direction they want to go and now Staphan thinks he needs to cut the idea creation and delivery and limit one person per entity which in my opin…

If the funds are only sent after delivery, who will validate the deliverables? Still a council or an xGov vote? Think the second is better as the organization of a council seems complicated to me. Plus it will make the xGovs aware of the ecosystem progress and the result of their votes.

For this iteration it will be AF, for next ones, it is planned to be the Council (Experts elected by xGovs)

I edited the first post: Proposals can now be for-profit or non for-profit. Limit of 2 proposals instead of 1, per entity/individual/project
