Thanks for the support and sharing your thoughts @HowardMarin. I like the idea of keeping any elected council accountable through the use of regular renewal votes.
In terms of pay we will have to see how the system takes shape and how much responsibility advocates end up having. Perhaps community advocates can also take on a multi-sig role that executes the meta-governance votes as an added responsibility, which also helps justifying a paid position. For reference the Spartan Council are paid 1000SNX per month.
