Dev Guild

Drafted by: jameswmontgomery.eth, Icedcool, nonsense

Summary

As we enter Season 1, the Developers Guild (herein “Guild”) Treasury will be given BANK tokens for the purposes of funding Guild projects and activities. As such, we need a methodology for distributing these tokens. We recommend that a Program Proposal framework exist to support requesting funds from the Guild Treasury.

Background

There are a wide variety of methods & purposes for distributing funds. Some examples include:

• Funding bounties
• Paying contributors
  • Coordinape
  • SourceCred
  • Salary
• Paying other guilds
• Sponsoring DAO memberships
• Paying Guild Expenses (ex: Infrastructure)

Rather than pursue an Omnibus style budget that includes all uses of the Guild Treasury in one single bill, we propose that individual programs gather consensus and submit proposals to the Guild Treasury Committee for consideration & funding.
