# Week of October 10, 2022 ## Summary We’re in the third week of Cycle #7, which is voting week. We’ve got until October 20 (7PM GMT) to [submit our votes](https://snapshot.org/#/opcollective.eth) for this Cycle. Community feedback week of Voting Cycle #8 begins thereafter. ## Proposals I’m not including synopses of the (14) proposals this time around since they have been collected and thoroughly assessed by the various parties noted below. And it would make this a very lengthy post. (If you have a different take, let me know.) Here’s the [Voting Cycle Roundup thread](https://gov.optimism.io/t/voting-cycle-7-roundup/3586) for Cycle #7. Note that the Curve, EthernautDAO, and Homora V2 proposals listed there did not make it to the Snapshot this time. 🗣 Check out the **Governance Committee Recommendations** concerning this Cycle’s proposals: - DeFi Committee A [[Forum](https://gov.optimism.io/t/defi-committee-a-season-2-recommendations/3522/8)][[Discord](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/1019311447706189968)] - DeFi Committee C [[Forum](https://gov.optimism.io/t/defi-committee-c-season-2-recommendations/3437/6)][[Discord](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/1019514978128117771)] - NFT & Gaming Committee [[Forum](https://gov.optimism.io/t/nft-gaming-committee-a-season-2-recommendations/3535)] [[Discord](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/1024748846720487544)] - Tooling Committee [[Forum](https://gov.optimism.io/t/tooling-committee-season-2-recommendations/3551/8)][[Discord](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/1019310579984371842)] 🗣 [Vote now](https://snapshot.org/#/opcollective.eth)! — voting is live only until October 20, 7PM GMT. That’s Thursday. ## In the Forums **DeFi Shadow Committee** recommendations for Cycle #7 are posted in [this thread](https://gov.optimism.io/t/defi-shadow-committee-season-2-recommendations/3549/11). **Governance Committees** are [now expected](https://gov.optimism.io/t/committees-next-steps-for-season-2/3436/3) to publicly identify their assigned proposals by the first day of week 2, and post their recommendations by the last day of week 2. **Additionally** , as @lavande writes following discussion during a community call, if something isn’t spelled out in [Governance Committee procedures](https://gov.optimism.io/t/introducing-governance-committees/3238), the [committees have discretion](https://gov.optimism.io/t/introducing-governance-committees/3238/63) over their own operations. **See the delegate communications** [category](https://gov.optimism.io/c/governance/delegate-updates/45) for [updates](https://gov.optimism.io/t/scaleweb3-delegate-communication-thread/3314/12) from @ScaleWeb3 — and more likely forthcoming. **Delegate areas of interest**. There’s [more discussion](https://gov.optimism.io/t/update-the-delegates-page-areas-of-interest/3442/10) about updating this page. **Community Mottos** : Check out the [brainstorm](https://gov.optimism.io/t/community-mottos-brainstorm/3681) and contribute something pithy that captures the spirit of community interaction we’re looking for. ## In Discord **Reminder: Governance Committees** are a [Season 2 experiment](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/968498307913637919/1029898391456579715). Debates in #gov-general have been heated. **When DAO funding** proposals go wrong — [chills](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/968498307913637919/1030343588594323456). 🗣 Check in on the [#gov-temp-check](https://discord.com/channels/667044843901681675/1011238484373159956) channel to respond to proposals looking for feedback. ## On Twitter **Modular Rollup Theory** through the Lens of the OP Stack, [a talk](https://twitter.com/kelvinfichter/status/1581142246048399360?s=20&t=uN7GrG37gZhe0WUjMCvKfA) by @kelvinfichter at Devcon. **Social coordination in DAOs** — [pressing issues](https://twitter.com/StableNode/status/1581093736980697089?s=20&t=uN7GrG37gZhe0WUjMCvKfA). **Optimism NFT bridge**.
