March 20 - 26: Veto Period

Protocol Upgrades and Maintenance Upgrades

Protocol Upgrades may begin their own separate governance process at any point in time. Once a valid Protocol Upgrade draft has been posted to the forum, a governance administrator will add a comment with the date the proposal will move to a vote, subject to the required approvals. The section below will be used to track any protocol/maintenance upgrades that have started their own voting cycle.
