[Phase-1] HIP–75: Remove the Mission Board Member Role

Some thoughts about HIP-7 and why i’m agree with hip75. To be honest, I appeared here after the board became effective… So please, i’m open to hear what others have to say too.

Technical implementation of voting. :thinking:
We can consider the changes needed for quadratic voting implementation. In that case, only Santi & Clement had the power to enable it.

Access to critical wallets. :x:
Jean and Valen has no access to the gitcoin multisig wallet. Clement need to leave his signature too.

Access right to funds by management :x:
I don’t understand the difference between the previous and this one. But i think it’s the same outcome.

Payment to employees. :x:
We have no employees and no plans to have either.

Any resource requiring high trust by the community. :x:
Snapshot administrators are only santi and clement. Again, Jean & Valen has no access and clement should leave his place.
I don’t know who manage this forum itself either, can anyone confirm?

In addition, the board will

Advise management, administer their payment, and monitor their performance. :x:

Adjudicate if the proper procedure is followed on passing proposals. :thinking:
I’ve been going over some problems with this myself. Some proposals were no hip5 complaint and had a high risk to be challenged in the governor, but no mbm worried too much
To be fair, the mission board ratification was a case of success. But it’s the only one.

Be authorized to issue mission statements on behalf of the DAO. :x:
I don’t know if something like this happen .

Leaving hip7 aside, I understand that one of the important concern was to hire a solid team to lead the protocol. It never happen.

So, I prefer that we remove this political role. We do trust now in people who are not in a mission board seat, so I see no difference if the board is not here anymore. Then, we could establish new roles only for what it’s needed (snapshot / forum / small multisig treasury / etc)
