Index Improvement Proposals (IIP) Process

[sixtykeys]

Hey @funkmasterflex,

@funkmasterflex

Is there a process for resubmitting an IIP after a failed attempt? We’ve had multiple IIPs voted strongly against by INDEX holders which were then resubmitted for a second vote.

While there are no hard rules for resubmission, IIPs are usually rerun only once after failure / not reaching quorum. For any that are voted down, granted the author has made a visible effort to make changes to a failed proposal, I see no issue in rerunning. Thanks for bringing this to light though, we will create a resubmission framework for everyone to follow moving forward.

While most IIPs that are passed are executed, we have generally had a problem with passing proposals and not following through. How do we prevent this from happening in the future?

Governance Nest does keep track of the execution status of all IIPs on the IIP tracker, and we do a quarterly clean up of any IIPs that remain unexecuted for > 3 months. Unfortunately for unexecuted proposals, prior scrutiny is difficult considering issues that may lead to non-execution only arise after the fact and rarely before, but as stated in this forum post, we ask that all relevant parties (affected, deciding, executing) are aligned on the desired outcome.

@funkmasterflex

As we strive to be a more efficient DAO I hope governance can lead the way in this area.

I hope the steps we are taking such as allowing contributors to run their own proposals from start to finish without any GovNest involvement create a more frictionless and efficient environment for all.
