The following reflects the views of L2BEAT’s governance team, composed of @krst and @Sinkas, and it’s based on the combined research, fact-checking, and ideation of the two.
We’ll be voting FOR this proposal during temp-check.
We see the value of incorporating the daoURI in Arbitrum’s governance to have a programmatically accessible single source of DAO information and the fact that there is no overhead for the DAO, in terms of effort or money required, makes the decision a no-brainer. Furthermore, we’re comfortable knowing that most governance tooling platforms are already members of DAOstar so adopting the daoURI will give them an easy path to metadata updates.
When it comes to the two outlined approaches, we believe the path of least resistance (setting a new ‘daoURI’ txt record on arbitrumfoundation.eth) to be the most prudent one to follow at this time. This way, the implementation will be easier, and we’ll have the flexibility to make changes without needing a governance vote. At a later date, we can revisit the topic and discuss setting the DAO’s timelock as the manager.
