[Community Vote] Season 5

[Sprinklesforwinners]

Hi @Rowan, I know it has been a fair amount of time since this season spec, but I am wondering if you can help me with a few questions. As I am one of those that joined the DAO right at the end of Season 4.

interest free loan

Based that a simple majority or 51% voted to “top up” the Grants Committee Budget, does it make sense that this would continue and also extend to all that receive funding from the Grants Committee?

@Rowan

The GSE have been developing proposals for changes to the way bDAO governs itself. One of the proposed changes is to create a bDAO Constitution and bDIP Standard . To formalize the process for any changes made to the way bDAO governs itself, we’ve included this as an element of the Community Vote.

In Season 5, we should:

Make the necessary changes to the Season 5 Specification to allow the GSE to implement the proposed bDAO Constitution and bDIP Standard

On Draft 2 of the Season 5 Spec, I see:

• Governance Solutions Engineers will have the ability to change or replace the Seasonal Specification, subject to forum and/or Snapshot voting in order to implement the BanklessDAO Constitution & Community Handbook

My Questions are:

1. Is there a difference between GSE (singular) vs Governance Solution Engineers ?
2. If the GSE or GSEs are no longer, is the original spec [Draft 2] Governance Solutions Engineer Program and what was subsequently ratified valid, as it was not implemented correctly?
