Governance Design 📐 Metagovernance

Hello @spengraph and thank you once again for your valuable feedback!

I have revised the Charter, and as per your suggestions,

  1. The goal of preventing capture is further declared as an explicit goal in Goal 1.
  2. KPIs have been outlined for Goals 3 and 5.
  3. The alternate language proposed for Goal 6 has been included in the Charter.
  4. Alignment of the ACC Charter with Season 7 Intent has been included in Goals 2 and 6.
  5. The dry run scenario is now referenced in Goal 2.

Budget:

I agree with the premise that the ACC should have a budget and also that the activities of the ACC in preventing capture will be hard for external observers to measure. In an earlier reply, I have outlined some potential funding models the ACC can explore.
With this Season’s charter, we are following the model from the previous Season and I have confirmed that the ACC members will be eligible for Governance Participation Rewards which will come from the Foundation.

A potential strategy to consider would be to direct a larger portion of the Governance Participation Rewards through the ACC. For example, if the primary reward pathway for Delegates in the Retro Governance Participation Rewards is through active participation in the ACC and not merely voting on proposals, it would automatically align incentives and high-context Delegates will more inclined to participate in the ACC.

Considering that this would be the third Season of the ACC, and other Councils like the Security Council are proposing a budget for the first time in Season 7 despite being a Representative Structure for few seasons longer than the ACC, the ACC can thoroughly discuss various aspects of funding over the course of Season 7, and potentially consider introducing its own budget in Season 8 of Governance. I have added this as a responsibility for the ACC Lead for Season 7 in the Charter.

Charter Amendment Process:

  1. The Github PR has been added and referenced to in the Charter.
  2. Changes have been updated in the PR.
  3. Relevant links have been added for reference.

Once again, I thank you for your feedback!
