I’m voting against this proposal.
Don’t get me wrong, I really like the experiment with the social graph concept and most of the details proposed, and I don’t think its a problem if it’s ARB denominated. But I would love it if the Foundation worked with Paulo to find the best proposal out of the two approaches. This vote failing is an opportunity to gather more feedback on the proposal and collaborate rather than compete.
I think the AAEs should look to foster community led efforts whenever possible. I appreciate a lot of things about Paulo’s proposal, if we could integrate some of the best aspects of his proposal (e.g. the coordinape-esque feedback) we could better live up to our DAO nature.
Of course, the AF has a better perspective for designing this proposal. But if the community is already building toward something similar, I believe it would be better for the AF to support and collab with the community than to compete… At least in this circumstance.
ALSO! Let’s add delegation of voting power to DIP
As a side note, I would LOVE to see a way for DIP participation to result in ARB Delegation increases.. This is a nearly cost free way for rewarding Delegates, while also helping us fight the quorum issues that we have been fighting.
