Thank you to the Areta team for persistently working on this topic, incorporating feedback and proposing a pilot program. As others have pointed out this pilot approach significantly derisks the complexities involved with the former approach and can offer the DAO clear insights on the need and value such a topic can offer. Hence I am supportive of this proposal.
