GovAlpha (@LongForWisdom, @Prose11, @Patrick_J)

What specific project or work is the retrospective award in recognition of? Please detail what the project or work entailed and the duration over which it took place.

This retro covers the drafting, coordination and submission of RPIP-36.

RPIP-36 is a Living Informational RPIP that records the committees and roles defined by the pDAO, relevant links and resources, their current membership and their historic membership.

Relevant links:

This work took ~8 hours total over 2 weeks.

  • 1 hour planning
  • 3 hours for a first draft
  • 1 hour updating GMC records + minor fiddling.
  • 1 hour discussion + gathering feedback.
  • 2 hour feedback changes, polish, etc.

The maintenance plan for this is currently: ‘LFW will do while he’s around, but officially RPIP editors are supposed to maintain.’ Given the maintenance is not difficult or time consuming, I’m happy to just handle it without worrying about payment.

Are the subjects of this award entirely open source (MIT, GPL, Apache, CC BY license or similar)? If not, which parts will not be, why, and under what license will they be published?

Yes, CC0.

Benefits - enter N/A where appropriate

Benefits here are not easily measured, but are widely identical across the relevant groups: This RPIP provides a more accessible insight into the function and structures of the Rocket Pool DAO than was previously available.

For the active community especially, this RPIP provides a way to get up to speed, find resources they may need access to, and generally engage with and understand the existing groups and roles.

I also feel that it will be quite valuable for onboarding when new community members join the DAO. Something like this would have helped us when we were getting up to speed.

Payment

How much USD $ is the applicant requesting be awarded to the recipient?

$800 in some stable token (LUSD / USDC / DAI)

Conflict of Interest
