Dear all,
As you know, the Gearbox Foundation (the “Foundation”) was established (you can learn more in this thread [link].
In order for the Foundation to operate in the best possible way, the DAO has to decide on the major short-term and long-term assignments that will be given to the Foundation, allocation of resources, as well as other matters related to its operations.
To accomplish this, we urge the community to engage in discussions and draft a GIP to be passed as a DAO resolution. The major items that we suggest to address are:
a) Assignments, for example, IP management, source code licensing, manage and maintain subscriptions with third-party services such as hostings, email providers, etc.;
b) Allocation of a budget in USDC/T that can cover the operational expenses of the Foundation during a particular term, for example, 12 months;
c) Appointment of representatives, committees, or sub-DAOs who can exercise the DAO’s rights and act as its representatives in discussions with the Foundation regarding specific subjects (so that there’s no need for the DAO to pass separate resolutions on such subjects as its representatives can provide respective instructions).
To help in this process, we have prepared a draft GEAR DAO Resolution, which can serve as a basis or sample for a DAO resolution to be adopted. The draft is available at [link].
We encourage everyone to review this post and provide feedback.
We will closely monitor this thread and welcome any questions or suggestions you may have.
