Here is a quick tutorial for the process of submitting a suggestion or task request:

### Status Quo Bounty Flow
- Anyone from the QA community can create an *IMPROVEMENT REQUEST*.
- Before it becomes an actionable task with a bounty reward, it needs community consent.
- The Bounty manager drives discussion on the bounty ( in Catalyst United Discord).
- Bounty manager can be anyone that understands and is able to facilitate the process, **contact DanMercurius#7990** via Discord in case you **want to apply**.
- *We're currently iterating on the Bounty Manager status, any feedback and input is much appreciated*:

:::info
Bounty Manager status

In case a bounty doesn't move or is not commented on for longer than 72h, a new bounty manager may pick it up. Upon passing a stage 12h can be added to the reaction timer. Bounty reward is only received by the bounty manager that approves work (it's up to the manager to decide if he wants to split it with previous involved ones).
This should incentivise bounty managers to facilitate in a timely manner and focus on only one or two bounties a time.

### The current Bounty flow visualised
#### What else is there?
There's an alternative option, to be revisited in case of bottlenecks developing due to high amount of bounty submissions.

### Challenging Status Quo
In case you see room for improvement of the process, please use the template below to create an Improvement Request (IR) in Dework.

How to Engage and Contribute
---
### On boarding & getting stripes

- Jump in the Catalyst United Discord
- Head over to the **#role-selection** channel and select 🪝 **Project Catalyst WG** by clicking the 🪝 below the message. This will enable You to participate in the WorkingGroups. You're welcome to choose any other additional roles that interest you.

#### Information Overload?
For better oversight it is possible to collapse the categories. Only channels with unread messages will stay visible (bold & white) when a category is collapsed.

A goodplace to start looking for questions already asked or asking new ones is the [**Open Forum**](https://discord.gg/tENy4Vys).

### Last step
- Familiarise deeply with [Code of Conduct](https://hackmd.io/sLlDSbqRSiCcRaMe_0dGLg?both#Code-of-Conduct).
### Start contributing
After you are familiar with the Code of Conduct (CoC) and the workflows you can join the DeWork board via [this link](https://app.dework.xyz/catalyst-circle-ca-r/veteran-ca-wg) and start writing suggestions and or claiming bounties.

Here's an example of a DeWork task (bounty) opened in Discord
