this is new MIP$ not like the old mip4

--- title: this is new MIP$ not like the old mip4 --- ## Preamble ``` MIP4c2-SP#: 15 MIP to be amended: MIP38, MIP39, MIP41 Author(s): GFX Labs (@gfxlabs), @twblack88, @blimpa, @gala Contributors: @PaperImperium, @psychonaut. @longforwisdom, @juan, @davidutro, @seth, @sebventures, @MadShills Tags: mip-amendment Status: RFC Date Proposed: 2022-05-17 Date Ratified: <yyyy-mm-dd> Forum URL: https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip4c2-sp15-core-unit-offboarding-process-amendments/12920 ``` ## Specification ### Motivation The original motivation for this amendment was to simplify and to clarify the Core Unit offboarding process. Recent examples (see MKT-001 offboarding: [1](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip40c3-sp49-modify-core-unit-budget-mkt-001/12059/12), [2](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip41c5-sp3-facilitator-offboarding-mkt-001/12058/11), [3](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/content-production-core-unit-offboarding-post-mortem/13756)) have demonstrated several gaps in this process. Ratifying simple changes started small and, along the way, the ambitions grew into revisions for much of the Core Unit MIP Set. Thanks to generous contributions from GovAlpha we now have a cohesive MIP Set. The aim is to reduce harm to the DAO and community in the event of Core Unit disruptions. These changes are an attempt to make processes more transparent and orderly. In addition, edits to MIP38, MIP39, and MIP41 fill in process gaps, or streamline them, with additional documentation and/or templates. This comprehensive set of changes should inspire substantive discussion surrounding an offboarding proposal prior to a vote. It will also make tracking and editing Core Unit MIPs simpler. ### Additional Information Please note that this amendment assumes the passing of [the new Core Unit Budget process](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip4c2-sp19-mip40-budget-process-amendment/14250). Against the spirit of [MIP4](https://mips.makerdao.com/mips/details/MIP4), this is a considerably large ---though not very disrupting--- amendment. Given how deeply entrenched in the DAO the Core Unit framework is, we decided that the continuity of the MIP Set is worth the venial offense. Furthermore, as stated in MIP4, it is ultimately up to the community whether an amendment is appropriate for any given case. This amendment is a development of the original amendment published by @GFXLabs. Our gratitude to them for kickstarting the initiative. #### Goals - Solidify the Core Unit offboarding process. - Simplifiy and templatize the process for offboarding. - Clarify offboarding terms within the governance cycle. - Establish a standard for proposers. - Introduce and format expectations on timeline, work plans, and budgets. - Make the offboarding process reference [the new Core Unit Budget process](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip4c2-sp19-mip40-budget-process-amendment/14250) (pending approval). - Add templates where appropriate or finalize WIP from the original MIP4. - Propose an unwinding plan for core units with legacy budgets as the [revised MIP40](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip4c2-sp19-mip40-budget-process-amendment/14250/39) came along. ### Amended MIPs and Components - MIP38 - MIP39 - MIP41 ### Relevant Github links - Link to Pull request [with all changes](https://github.com/makerdao/mips/pull/547) - [Branch link](https://github.com/makerdao/mips/tree/Core-Unit-Offboarding-Process-Amendment) - [jpritikin · Pull Request #467 · makerdao/mips · GitHub ](https://github.com/makerdao/mips/pull/467) ### Relevant Information - [Previous MIP4](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip4c2-sp15-core-unit-offboarding-process-amendments/12920) - [Facilitator Offboarding (RWF-001) ](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip41c5-sp2-facilitator-offboarding-rwf-001/11306) - [Facilitator Offboarding (MKT-001) ](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip41c5-sp3-facilitator-offboarding-mkt-001/12058) - [Modify Core Unit Budget (MKT-001) ](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip40c3-sp49-modify-core-unit-budget-mkt-001/12059/12) - [Video Producing under MIP41c5-SP3: Facilitator Offboarding (MKT-001) ](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/video-producing-under-mip41c5-sp3-facilitator-offboarding-mkt-001/12654/7) - [Action items list](https://hackmd.io/As1gbXFUQKiExof4UCvNiA?edit), if you're into that sort of thing --- add as comment to forums This amended MIP set is dependent on the revised MIP40 to pass, we added our relevant work into the proposed MIP. We'll also change the original thread to `deprecated` since this is adding significantly more work.
