Community WG - Intent (DRAFT)

Focus and Intent

Jordan, I refined your paragraph and organized the inten into four bullet points - colton.

The mission of the Community Working Group is to foster the growth of a thriving ENS community. The Community WG wants to strengthen relationships between those passionate about ENS in real life, the metaverse, and anywhere in between.

Fostering the growth of our community comes in the form of:

  1. Onboarding. Creating initiatives to introduce and onboard new users into the ENS ecosystem.
  2. Education. Educate new and existing users on the goals/ideals of ENS.
  3. Inclusion. Create safe spaces for the discussion of anything related to ENS.
  4. Representation. Initiate ENS DAO proposals that represent our community members.

Goals for the Term

Need to add measurable tassk and how will achieve them

Publish Learn Docs

Initiate Subgroups.

Goal

Promote representation for marginalized communities within our own community.

  • Clear road map for achieving those goals to be published in the ENS governance forum within the first 30 days of a Term;
  • Establish all reasonable subgroups
  • Provide operational and financial support for all established subgroups
  • Enable subgroups to succeed and meet their respective KPIs

Pledge of Conduct

In leiu of a formally established Code of Conduct, our working group and all contributors pledge to foster an inclusive environment that is welcoming for all. The Community Working group is for every person regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Using welcoming and inclusive language
Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
Focusing on what is best for the community
Showing empathy towards other community members


==Jordan's thoughts:
ENS DAO should consider adopting a code of conduct that spans the entire protocol - across users, moderators, delegates, contributors, stewards, and ideally TNL.

While there hasn’t been any sort of incident that would require this, I think it’s healthy to have guidelines for communication that we can reference if the need arises, and a code of conduct will be a clear cut solution for anyone to reference in case there is any need.

A code of conduct will result in clear moderation guidelines across the entire spectrum of issues - whether it’s a small Discord spat or a larger communication breakdown between stewards / working groups / etc. Referencing these guidelines will also allow for objective discussion.

I believe that ENS DAO should adopt the latest version of the widely-used Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct (with adjustments, if needed or desired). Hundreds of web2 organizations have already adopted it, in addition to some web3 groups like Yearn. There’s no need to create a brand new code of conduct when a standard already exists for this, imo.

On a higher level, interactions among anyone interacting with ENS DAO or on behalf of ENS DAO should be in good faith, and good faith should be assumed of the other party as well.

Jordan TODO things from the last WG meeting:

  • Who is enforcing / how do the enforce
  • How does it work if it goes all the way up to removal of stewards
  • Could be a social proposal
  • Consider making forum post about this
  • Good note about privacy - the recommended code of conduct above basically allows for anonymous reports which can become insidious. adjust accordingly
