A
Hello,
justin,
hey
everyone!
Welcome
to
the
session
number
two
of
co-unit
launching
pod
sessions.
Today
we
have
the
governance
alpha
core
unit,
so
we
have
long
for
wisdom
with
his
team
or
part
of
his
team
where
they'll
be
presenting
well
the
mandate,
what
they're
planning
to
achieve
budget
and
personnel
to
be
everything
in
between?
B
Sure,
thank
you.
Fun
yeah
feel
free
to
interrupt
whenever
it's
still
good
probably
makes
more
sense
for
me
to
explain
things
as
I
confuse
people
rather
than
later
on
yeah.
So
for
those
who
don't
know
everyone
knows,
but
my
name
is
wisdom.
I'm
the
government
facilitator
at
makerdale.
I'll
have
been
up
to
this
point
all
right.
Assuming
that
the
current
polls
up
fast,
I
will
be
there
for
you.
B
Maybe
not
so
yeah
assuming
pulse
fast.
I
will
be
the
cool
unit
facilitator
for
club
alpha,
which
is
the
the
first
government
school
unit,
and
this
kind
of
presentation
is
just
meant
to
give
everyone
kind
of
an
introduction
to
the
mandators
to
kind
of
what
the
initial
budget
is.
Everything
in
here
is
in
here
in
more
detail
in
the
sub
proposals
which
are
currently
voted
on.
So
if
you
want
more
detail
and
everything
feel
free
to
check
those
out
as
well
right,
so
we'll
start
off
with
the
mandates.
B
B
B
So.
I've
had
unhealthy
division
here,
because
division
is
obviously
to
be
expected.
Obviously,
people
have
differences
of
opinion
differences
of
opinions,
but
the
hope
is
that
those
different
differences
opinions
don't
become
something
kind
of
more
in.
Like
sort
of
you
know,
kind
of
permanent
divisions
in
the
community
on
ideological.
B
Bases
finally,
communication
moderation-
and
this
is
just
sort
of
moderating
the
kind
of
communications
channels
that
governance
uses
to
perform.
The
rocket,
chats,
making
sure,
there's
always
kind
of
an
open
channel
of
communication
between
governance
and
the
other
mandated
actors
who
don't
always
have
kind
of
time
to
engage
with
governance
directly
and
generally,
making
sure
that
there's
kind
of
a
culture
of
openness
and
discussion
among
the
community.
A
B
So
I
think
I
would
consider
that
everyone's
voice
being
heard
more
of
like
facilitation
right.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
all
the
points
are
covered,
but
specifically
it's
that
the
facilitators
of
governor
shouldn't
take
sides
in
like
issues,
because
when
contrary
controversial
issues
come
up,
you
need
to
have
moderators
of
the
discussion
that
are
trusted
by
both
sides
to
be
neutral
right.
A
B
I
guess
what
moderation
kind
of
wise
sort
of
discussed
and
sort
of
you
know
so,
obviously,
like
I
just
I
chair,
like
the
governor's
meeting
generally
right,
if
that's
not
the
goddess
facilitator,
then
you
need
to
find
someone
else
to
do
it.
Someone
who
may
want
to
like
sort
of
push
the
agenda
towards
things
that
they
they're
interested
in
right
or
is.
C
Yeah
long,
do
you
feel,
or
do
you
think
that
governance
facilitators
have
a
duty
to
kind
of
bring
up
the
things
about
certain
proposals
that
might
be
like
being
hidden
from
the
author?
Like
I
know,
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
detail
that
goes
into
a
lot
of
these,
so
I
guess
some
yeah,
the
basic
question
I'm
asking
is:
should
facilitators
try
to
surface
like
obvious
issues
and
and
whatever
might
be
overlooked
by
the
community.
B
Yeah,
I
think
it's
a
little
bit
so
eventually
travis,
you
think
I'm
not
taking
aside
like.
Obviously
in
practice,
this
is
pretty
difficult
to
do,
because
human
beings
tend
to
have
opinions
on
things.
So
it's
a
little
bit
like
a
difficult
line
to
walk,
but
you
kind
of
want
to
sort
of
if,
as
you
say,
some
discussion's
been
going
on
and
some
sort
of
points
that
you
identified
has
been
kind
of,
dismissed
or
not
covered.
You
know
then
sort
of
saying
like
well.
B
A
D
B
Yeah,
so
I
think
this
is
kind
of
covered
under
facilitation
of
governance,
or
at
least
I
consider
it
to
be
in
terms
of
like,
I
think
it
is
part
of
the
government
facilitators
job
to
kind
of
identify
when
governance
processes
themselves
are
kind
of
hindering
decision
making
or
or
like.
I
guess,
robust
decision
making,
because
there's
like
people
always
saying
like
it
would
be
nice
to
if
we
could
just
like
decide
this
quicker
I'll.
B
Do
this
quicker,
which
is
in
a
lot
of
cases
it's
fine,
but
if
you
run
and
if
you
sort
of,
if
you
make
it
like
the
sort
of
default
to
sort
of
do
things
very
quickly,
then
in
the
cases
where
something
does
need
more
discussion,
it's
it's
then
tough
to
kind
of
change,
the
the
default
to
some
to
sort
of
a
longer
period,
but
in
general
yeah.
I
think
like
trying
to
make
governance
more
like
effective.
I
mean,
I
guess,
facilitating
the
governance,
processes
and
processes
themselves
is
something
yeah.
B
Being
that
facilitators
are
directly
answerable
to
governance,
for
how
the
budget
is
spent
and
the
outcomes
of
you
know
like
how
how
effectively
governor
has
spent
the
budget
and
to
achieve
the
goals,
whereas
the
contributors
like
answerable
to
the
facilitators
for
work
items,
but
not
directly
responsible
for
governments
to
governance
right.
So,
as
I
kind
of
pushed
you
before
like
there
should
be
multiple
facilities.
B
The
aim
is
for
at
least
three
probably
three
for
the
for
the
foreseeable
future,
like
in
the
future,
when
makeup
grows
potentially
more,
but
for
the
time
being,
three
the
reason
for
this
being
redundancy,
and
so,
if,
if
someone
gets
hit
by
bus,
then
we
don't
end
up
the
governor's
process
doesn't
end
up
collapsing.
Also,
some
people
can
just
take
holidays
right
because
it's
kind
of
nice
to
to
not
be
always
on
the
other
of
this
is
kind
of
making
sure
that
decision
making
is
more
measured.
A
B
This
decision
right
and
then
again,
as
I
mentioned
before,
the
other
thing-
is
representation
right.
You
will
kind
of
want
people
from
different
parts
of
the
world
to
to
not
feel
that,
like
they're
being
unfairly
biased
against
because
of
the
membership
of
this
group,
and
then
finally,
I've
been
inclusive
just
like,
although
I'm
kind
of
presenting
this
as
kind
of
a
strict
two-level
hierarchy
right
in
practice,
you
know
it's
not
gonna,
be
like
a
strict.
You
know
facilities
sit
at
night
in
an
every
retire
and
never
talk
to
the
contributors.
A
B
B
So
I
I
mean
I
don't
have
like
a
sort
of
a
hard
like
list
of
requirements.
There
is
kind
of
a
list
of
requirements
for
what
facilitators
should
should
do,
which
is
kind
of
in
the
mandate
right,
but
yeah.
It's
mostly
gonna,
be
me
playing
a
video
for
this
at
this
stage,
so
yeah
does
it
answer
your
question.
Yeah
thanks.
D
I
have
another
one
you're
kind
of
aiming
for
three
facilitators
and
that's
kind
of
always
ideal
to
have.
I
would
say,
probably
like
an
odd
number
of
facilitators
right
for
agreement
reasons,
but
in
the
case
that
it
is
like
two
or
four
or
something
do
you
have
a
formal
process
for
facilitated
decision
making
like
within
the
facilitators
or
or
how
are
you
kind
of
assessing
how
that
those
decisions
would
come
about?
B
Yeah
sure
so
there
isn't
a
formal
kind
of
process.
I
think
so.
This
kind
of
depends
a
little
bit
on
like
the
kind
of
urgency
and
like
the
the
situation
around.
Is
this
the
issue?
The
hypothetical
decision
right,
I
plan
to
make
it
so
that
like
government
facilitators,
if
they
are
like
the
only
one
around
and
that
decision
needs
to
be
made
immediately,
then
they'll
have
to
make
the
decision
themselves
right
and
then
we'll
everyone
will
kind
of
go
with
that.
B
In
the
case,
when
there
is
time
for
consultation,
then
like
it
should
be
expected
that
they
kind
of
discuss
with
the
other
gov
alpha,
solid
status
and
kind
of
at
least
discuss
and
hopefully
come
to
some
consensus.
Obviously
that's
not
guaranteed,
and
if
you
have
like
two
or
four
then
that's
or
an
even
number,
then
that's
potentially
a
problem.
I
think
in
those
situations,
if
there's
no
other
tiebreaker
you'd,
probably
go
by
it's
like
seniority
but
yeah.
B
It's
I
like
to
think
you
know
we're
all
hopefully
going
to
be
reasonable
people
right
if
it's
an
issue
where,
like
people,
cannot
convince
each
other
that
a
certain
outcome
is
correct,
then,
hopefully,
it's
like
so
close
that
the
outcome
is
not
not
critically
important
right.
If
that
makes
sense,
or
not
so
obvious
that,
like
it's,
it's
going
to
be
sort
of
a
huge
issue.
D
D
B
B
Okay,
moving
on
so
team
membership,
so
hopefully
people
have
some
idea
of
this
list
already,
but
the
facilities
like
log
wisdom
me
is
the
facilitator
of
golfer.
Partial
commitment
refers
to
how
many
hours,
essentially
people
are
putting
in
as
facilitator
partial
commitments
is
20
or
more
as
opposed
to
35
or
more.
B
A
B
B
I
think
this
is
probably
enough
the
next
few
months
and
that
I
don't
think
we'll
be
hurting
too
much
but
yeah
we'll
see.
I
imagine
we
maybe
will
need
a
couple
more
going
forwards.
It's
hard
to
tell
at
the
stage.
Maybe
a
full-time
editor
might
be
good.
If,
like.
If
mips
start,
I
mean
if
the
reticle
continues
to
grow,
to
grow
and
more
and
more
groups
keep
coming
in,
and
we
might
need
kind
of
someone
to
to
work
on
that.
C
B
Yeah
I
mean
I
definitely
like
it
too.
I
think
it
could
like.
I
feel
like
this
would
come
under
facilitation
of
governance
right
if
we
look
at
the
whole
set
of
maps
and
realize
that
actually
this
certain
set
doesn't
or
like
it's
less
efficient
than
it
could
be
in
terms
of
governance,
attention
or
time
then
yeah,
that's
kind
of
again.
That
is
the
sort
of
one
of
the
reasons
we
we
would
maybe
want
a
sort
of
more
full
time.
B
B
Okay,
moving
on
so
quarterly
focus,
so
this
is
going
more
to
kind
of
the
immediate
future,
so
the
first
budget
for
alpha
is
set
for
three
months
april
may
and
june
and
in
addition
to
the
actual
budgets
kind
of
requests,
I
put
together
sort
of
a-
I
guess,
a
set
of
things.
We
were
gonna
focus
on
for
those
two
months,
so
the
first
I
kind
of
alluded
to
like
expansion,
redundancy,
so
on-boarding
contributors
and
the
aim
of
having
additional
facilitators
as
soon
as
possible.
B
B
It's
kind
of
not
super
focused
as
it
is
currently
in
that,
like
mips,
especially
sometimes
not
discussed
as
much
as
the
apps
could
be,
perhaps
should
be
so
we're
kind
of
looking
into
ways
to
turn
it
into
to
use
source
code
to
incentivize
content.
That's
kind
of
harder
to
consume
or
harder
to
comment
on
like
clips
and,
to
a
lesser
extent,
signal
requests.
B
So,
for
example,
so
I
mean
what
I'm
hoping
this
will
be
is,
like
a
you
know,
a
git
book
or
a
set
of
documentation
that
will
document
all
the
parameters
so
that
when
there's
a
signal
request
that
says
like
you
know,
we
need
to
increase
the
dust
parameter.
Then
someone
can
click
on
this
link
and
it
will
tell
them.
You
know
what
the
dust
parameter
is
and
they
practice
like
the
debt
floor.
B
A
And
also
to
add
a
little
bit
on
the
mips
portal,
I
think
there's
also
like
no,
it's
not
only
t-spot
right.
It's
also
the
the
work
that
your
team
is
putting
into
improving
the
mips,
so
they
are
more
readable
by
this
layer,
but
there's
there's
a
lot
of
work
in
the
behind
the
curtains.
I
just
wanted
to.
B
Yeah
there's
a
lot
of
work
in
going
into
making
the
mips
kind
of
consistent,
because
obviously
there
are
layouts
and
like
templates
for
maps
which
are
perhaps
not
always
followed
as
religiously
as
they
should
have
been,
and
that's
kind
of
fine.
If
you,
you
know,
you
have
people
reading
them,
like
people
can
kind
of
interpret
what
happens
if
you
leave
out
a
capital
letter
or
writes
like
rsc
instead
of
progressive
comments,
but
they
sort
of
you
know
something
automatically
passing
them
is
has
some
more
trouble
with
that.
C
B
Yeah
so
so
I
say,
less
is
like
a
kind
of
directed
onboarding
experience
and
more
is
like
a
reference
material
for
people
who
are
new
right.
So
the
idea
is
this:
is
you
know,
anytime,
there's
a
request
that
talks
about
changing
this
parameter?
There
is
a
link
to
this
operational
manual
to
the
to
the
page
referencing
this
parameter.
The
same
should
be
true
of
like
on-chain
polls
and
launching
executives
right
so
anytime.
Anybody
wants
to
interact
with
governance
in
some
way
like
to
make
kind
of
a
durable
decision
or
like
a
decision.
B
E
Hey
long
frank
here
with
regards
to
source
cred,
how
do
you
plan
on,
besides
the
into
interviews,
it's
incentives
to
keep
people
motivated?
How
do
you?
How
do
you
guys
plan
on
dealing
and
is
that
a
job
for
you
as
far
as
keeping
the
community
members,
not
you
know,
focused
and
not
burnt
out?
I
guess
because
I
think
that
you
know
I
seen
some
community
members
like
one
of
them
is
biff
piper.
He
was
really
good
and
then
he
just
disappeared.
Another
one
was
gosh.
B
It's
not
something
I've
explicitly
considered
as
something
the
team
would
do.
It's
kind
of
hard
to
help
regulate
burnout
for
sort
of
independent
community
members
right
like
to
some
extent,
everyone
has
to
take
responsibility
for
the
time
they
spend
on
things
like
within,
like
the
like
alpha
right,
like
that's
kind
of
like
the
facilitators
and
my
responsibility
to
handle
in
the
wider
community,
it's
a
little
bit
more
difficult
for
you
know
I
just
kind
of
don't
really
know
what
the
points
of
intervention
would
be
for.
B
E
Yeah,
I
add
in
that,
like
while
burnout
is
a
particularly
hard
one
to
to
diagnose
and
plan,
for
it
feels
like
a
big
part
of
gov
alpha's
responsibility
in
terms
of
maintaining
and
providing
these
channels
is
making
sure
they're
accessible,
and
you
know
easy
to
access
and
people
feel
welcomed
being
on
them.
So,
while
that
might
not
be
directly
related
into
burnout,
I
would
say
kind
of
touches
on
the
edge
case
in
terms
of
a
responsibility
to
to
the
community.
A
B
Yeah,
that's
definitely
true
yeah.
It's
obviously
like
we're
kind
of
working
on
ways
to
make
things
more
accessible
kind
of
as
part
of
the
mandate.
I
think
what
we
have
seen
is
that
some
people
sort
of
are
capable
of
kind
of
diving
in
and
doing
it,
and
these
tend
to
be
the
people
that
are
motivated.
B
E
Yeah,
that's
true
and
yeah.
I
think
micro
man
is
also
one
that
was
really
good
and
he's
kind
of
disappeared
on
us,
but
it's
all
good.
He
pops
up
here
here
and
there
once
in
a
while.
So
what
do
you
use?
What
do
you?
What?
What
does
your
team
first
see
as
far
as
like
streamlining
the
whole
governance
process?
Is
that
something
you
guys
are
going
to
push
for?
In
other
words,
are
you
going
to
order?
Are
you
going
to
like
make
a
push
for
automating
governance?
E
This
way
you
know
we
could
make
things
easier.
Is
this
something
is
that
going
to
be
one
of
the
first
things
you're
going
to
take
care
of
is
automation
as
far
as
governance,
because
I
heard
this
dude,
I
can't
remember,
I
always
forget
people's
names,
but
he
has.
He
has
a
podcast
and
he
said
he
was
one
of
the
at
the
earliest
stages
of
maker.
E
He
was
in
on
every
single
governance
called
gnr
call
and
after
a
while,
he
just
drove
him
crazy
to
be
debating
what
you
know,
what
the
stability
rate
should
be
and
some
stability
fee
or
whether
you
know
how
to
keep
the
pack
aligned
and
after
a
while
he
just
quit.
So
is
your
team
going
to
focus
at
one
of
the
first
things
besides
what
you
outlined
so
far,
are
you
guys
going
to
focus
on
automating
governance.
B
B
There's
kind
of
a
limited
amount
like
sort
of
go
alpha,
can
do
without
kind
of
smart
contract
support
to
automate
things,
but
there
are
some
I
mean,
as
I
think
you
and
most
others
are
aware.
There
are
some
things
that
we
could
definitely
can
automate
and
make
less
of
a
governance
burden
so
in
the
next.
B
B
At
this
stage,
like
20,
20
plus
percent.
This
is
kind
of
reflects
the
kind
of
uncertainty
we
have
that
I
kind
of
just
mentioned
around,
like
kind
of
what
we're
covering
and
sort
of
how
much
and
how
much
things
will
progress
and
how
quickly.
So,
I'm
hoping
that
sort
of
while
the
actual
amount
will
go
up
in
the
future.
Hopefully
the
percentage
required
for
contingency
will
go
down.
B
And
yeah
this
kind
of
covers,
I
guess
the
current
initiatives
will
currently
be
distributed
by
the
make
it
out
enter
multisick,
so
we'll
set
it
up
so
like
at
the
start
of
each
month.
The
kind
of
monthly
budget
is
sent
to
the
interim
multisig,
which
is
currently
has
keyholders
of
myself
and
the
other
non-foundation
core
unit
facilitators
mandate
tonight,
yeah.
So
like
pretty
much
step
sam
and
juan.
Yes,
you
you're
here
cool
yeah.
E
B
So
we
won't
get
into
that
too
much
at
this
stage
yeah,
so
we
may
consider
adding
those
either
in
three
months
time
or
potentially
before
then
as
a
separate
budget.
It's
a
separate
budget
implementation
like
the
the
current,
the
coilover,
so
you'd
have
multiple
budgets
so
yeah.
We
may
look
to
do
something
like
that
or
we
may
wait
to
see
if
any
kind
of
guidelines
come
from
the
operational
support
team.
B
B
As
I
say,
with
regards
to
the
health
insurance
stuff,
the
current
plan
is
to
distribute
so,
unlike
some
of
the
other
groups,
it's
just
to
distribute
with
distributed
dietary
contributors
directly,
which
would
leave
it
up
to
them
to
to
sort
of
make
their
own
kind
of
arrangements
with
regards
to
health
insurance
and
the
various
things
that
you
know,
taxes
not
that
this
other
stuff
right.
So
I've
discussed
with
the
current
contributors
and
everyone's
kind
of
okay
with
this.
B
A
C
B
So
current
plan
is
to
kind
of
continue
from
the
weight
foundation
the
foundation
handled
grants,
which
was
to
pay
an
hourly
rate.
So
that's
the
system
we're
currently
using
again
may
just
in
the
future.
If
it
turns
out
the
contributors
want
a
different
setup,
but
the
time
being,
I
think
everyone's
happy
with
that.
No
one's
come
out
and
said
that
they're
really
angry
so.
C
B
Sure
so
I
think
so
so
a
couple
of
things
so
in
the
future
it
may
not
be.
It
may
be
that
we
don't
have
three
month
budgets.
We
may
have
a
quarterly
budget,
so
we
may
have
like
six
months
or
yearly
budgets
right,
but
I
think
we'll
try
to
kind
of
maintain
a
kind
of
quarterly.
You
know
sort
of
progress
report
in
terms
of
what
we've
done
like
how
effectively
it's
gone.
If
there's
been
any
issues,
I
don't
think
we'll
kind
of
disclose.
E
I
guess
I
got
one
I
could
throw
out
there.
I
guess
right
now
there
doesn't
seem
to
be
a
large
need
for
like
a
legal
structure
for
the
gov
alpha
team,
but
is
that
something
you've
thought
about
or
something
you
could
see
in
the
future
needing
to
take
place
in
terms
of
having
to
pay
contributors
or
different
entities
like
from
an
entity.
B
Yeah,
so
I'm
kind
of
aware
that
there's
been
a
couple
of,
I
feel
that
is
now
like
accountable
kind
of
did
a
presentation
on
that
kind
of
subject.
I
believe
there's
another
one
as
well,
but
I've
forgotten
how
I
missed
it,
but
I
can
I'm
sure
I
can
catch
up
on
youtube
if
I
need
to,
but
essentially
you
know,
there's
a
couple
of
ways
of
kind
of
accommodating
contributors
or
facilitators
that
want
a
more
formalized
setup.
That
kind
of
don't
require
office.
B
A
B
Sure
I
mean
yeah,
I'm
available
on
the
forum,
I'm
available
on
the
right,
chats
outlook
for
wisdom
on
both
there's
also
a
an
hour
in
which
I'm
available
to
chat
with
on
zoom
every
week.
It's
monday,
I
believe,
5
p.m.
Utc.
I
think
it
is
yes
yeah.
I
have
to
double
check
yeah
and
but
I'm
kind
of
always
kind
of
just
there
sitting
in
the
zoom
call.
If
anybody
has
questions
or
anything
they
want
to
discuss
so
yeah.
A
Great
a
little
bit
of
a
shield
next
time
we
will
have
derek
and
the
smart
contracts
proposed
well
sub
proposal.
So
if
you
want
to
see
a
more
controversial
one,
especially
regarding
the
budget,
please
join
us

be
having
it

00,
pm
utc.
So
