Grant Committee compensation discussion

The GC post has not reached quorum. It only has 27 votes

1. This post Snapshot did not pass quorum and was sent to snapshot
2. Snapshot Voting - Implement Shielded Voting did not pass quorum or snapshot and yet it is being implemented in the current snapshot

Thus it is not necessary to pass quorum for governance posts to proceed to snapshot

This cohort of GC has not done more work than any other cohort. In fact in the original post, I point to the fact they they only reviewed 4-5 grants at that point, while the previous cohort had reviewed 18+

The GC bonus was not meant to compensate grant operations but grant strategy according to [Community Vote] Season 5

This bonus salary should compensate for Grants Committee members who e.g. initiate process improvements to the Grants Committee, initiate an evolution of the Grants Committee mandate or initiate an evolution of the DAO as a whole within the mandate of the Grants Committee.

In line with this mandate, the S6 GC strategy meetings has resulted in 4 outputs, which is much higher than any of the past GCs referred here
a. [Community Vote] Grants/Funding Strategy for S7
b. Purpose Driven Guild Funding

support performance related incentives, but as it stands no metrics are set up or openly communicated.

The original S5 post which approved a bonus for GC did not come with KPIs, which is why we wanted to gather feedback on this. However it is not possible to implement KPI based unlock without first having consensus on what and how it should be. I trust that S7 GC would work on this

The core problem here as @hirokennelly correctly points out is:

@hirokennelly

i would mark this, yet again, as a failure in the seasonal transition process (funding and otherwise), and less so a comment on the particular motivations of the movants.
omnibus voting has proved to be a failure, again and again, here and elsewhere. the efficiency gained is notable, but the processes we have to get there are immature.
