Create Mission Requests for Optimism Season 5
Key Points
- He said to send him a message throughout the week with new iterations of the proposal
- How should Optimism measure progress towards this Mission?
- How would we validate success or determine if it’s unsuccessful?
- There is a call for badgeholders on the 15th with a retroPGF process
- Badgeholders say they spent more than 50 hours spending in reviewing this retropgf applications
- The invalidation process is important. There needs to be a way to invalidate whether the review process was improved. Where people can see x works, y works, and z doesn’t.
- Need someone else to play with tools, not the badgeholders. The issue with surveys is that it requires badgeholders to review the tools and do extra work in reviewing the helpfulness of the tools
- The better approach would be to incentivize other people to use those tools and then we can provide a more helpful service
- Bring him something that will provide him with answers like we will use this tool ourselves and other people will review it’s effectiveness for the badgeholders. For example Griff from Pairwise tested his own tool with those people, so it might be helpful for other badgeholders
- He really wants this initiative to happen because we need better research for impact assessment, but we’re past the point were just randomly looking around and the proposal needs to be more defined to provide a better outcome. There needs to be some idea and it’s not like we can just try something.
- The issue with assessing those other projects is real. Imagine the complexity of comparing Optimystics with L2beat. How to compare and say that this project is worth x and y. This is the challenge in retropgf assessment
- He doesn’t see a vision behind the proposal and he doesn’t feel like if we post this then we’ll know what they’re paying for and what they’ll receive in return. They would fund people to do work, but what would they get in return?
- Has a feeling that I don’t fully understand of the review process which might be problematic
Doesn’t fully understand how we see it
Mission Proposals need to be finished by the end of the year
Will we apply for this? If so, how?
