- [ ] Paladins @ Warcamp: https://hackmd.io/KXegSTwaRoqU2ZKEm-uV5Q
- [ ] Feedback form
- [ ] monthly burn (Spencer)

- [ ] Buddy System, Feedback,
Value & Compensation ALignment:
Concerns:
Monthly burn / funds scarcity
No biases/special treatment
Risk:
We'll all be at level 5, unsustainable
Highly experienced/talented devs undervalued relative within DAO
Thoughts:
Compare monthly compensation from what people receive in Coordinape
Different from "levels" - based on experience
Coordinape as performance review - inputs are still not great.
- Bias toward things that are visible
Could do a Private Vote
- Everyone ranks everyone 1-5
- Gather all that data and share that's what people are at
Could push some of this down onto circle (Like Maker & Shapeshift)
Complexity Concerns
Early days - budget is 40K, divide to circles, each circle decide who gets paid what.
We now have 5 Paladin people figuring out to handle all the complex things.
Stream a UBI using Superfluid - bonuses w/Coordinape
Better & More Honest Review of Peers
Could vote down a cycle or commitment proposal for WarCamp
But if I could single out an individual proposal (anonomously?)
Could provide a better review process
Without a CEO to make hard decisions, the DAO has to make those decisions.
So DAO has to see individual proposals so DAO can make individual decisions.
Spencer: Complexity stuff is related but different, goal of simplifying lumped in w/recommendations on next cycle.
Design goal of recommendations: Simplify where we can.
More urgent question:
Outputs:
* Figure out cur_treasury (UI)
* Followup conversation among interested individuals sometime this week (sooner the better) (Spencer)
* Some process or venue for disagreements/evaluations to be made & synthesized (Spencer)
- Looks a little like a community vote, maybe anonymous

### For next week
- look into Google alternatives
### Notes
- potentially centralize all compensation through warcamp, ie retro track contributors would make their requests against warcamp, not the circle daos
- Role Discovery: roles for 15 people added to Nestr
- Compensation - catchall for anything we need to execute on for compensation.
- Coordinape epoch 22nd to the 29th. *Get a message out to everybody about that*
- Once all the compensation proposals are complete, then we can put together proposal to distribute Hedgy NFTs with time-locked HAUS.
- UI369 will ping Bau and get the download on Each of the Circle DAOs and see if there are compensation proposals submitted and to be submitted.
- Circle DAOs - find them through the explore page and search for the circle names.
- UI369 wants to try a Holacracy pilot. Constitution 5.0 is modular, so we could try adopting article 1.
- Spencer says try adopting a couple things and go in an incremental fashion.
- BoilerRat says do a workshop on what the meeting structure would be. Tactical meeting format.
- Moving on to number 3 - Warcamp meeting agenda & slides coordination.
- Item 4: Membership proposal
- - Modify it, Ratify it as is, or reject it.
- - Concerning new member ratification. Main difference is that HAUS tribute needs to be earned through contributions, rather than being bought.
- - Tipped HAUS would need to be moved out of discord.
- - Integrated concern of Annn3's to give a 60 day checkin aspect.
- DAO roles & staking - Diversity relating to backgrounds, identity & perspectives.
- Suspect if we continue bringing in Raidguild folks they'll continue to be mid-20s white guys.
- Raidguild has their own challenges in that area. If we rely on that funnel we assume those challenges ourselves.
- If we have our own funnel, we have more control at the group level who we bring in.
- Annn3 brought up the question of how we could make the culture more inviting.
- Spencer says he had the assumption that inviting more diversity would make the culture more inviting.
- Retention related - work it from both sides so that people stay without extra costs onboarding people who leave.
- The permissioned nature of DAOHaus could prevent people in certain backgrounds from accessing it. Also a security issue so how do you find a balance between the two.
- Key tension w/DAOs period. More challenging ina permissionless environment to move together toward a common objective when there's lots of noise from it being permissionless.
- Spencer believes this set of concerns needs a Champion. He's in a position to support and advocate for it, but not in a position to lead the effort.
- Annn3 and Spencer will check in about this through the week.
-
