This is just a Season Reminder to all DAO Organizational Units and Members that Season 8 Budgets should be posted to the forums one week prior to April 7th if the funding proposal is Under 1M BANK or for two weeks prior if your budget is over 1M BANK. April 7th is the day that funding proposals should be turned into the Grants Committee, so that they can review funding requests the following week.

With this season being longer, can we extend the limit of BANK per project/department since extra labor would otherwise be under the same budget.

Thank you for the very timely reminder :smiley:

For Season 8 budget planning here are the applicable dates as per this bDIP and subsequent associated Snapshot:

Season 8: Mon, May 15 - Sun, August 27 (15 weeks)
Gap Week: Mon, August 28 - Sun, Sept 3 (1 week)

As covered in the bDIP, teams within the DAO will have the ability to plan for budgeting and operational needs for these periods and may decide for themselves which activities should continue through breaks, if any.

Yes, I know.
I thought it would be useful to prompt people who read this post to prepare the S8 budget for 15 weeks instead of 13.
I can delete or edit the comment if you feel it’s not helpful.
