In order to move forward HIP-27 and to have a guarantee of its outcome in the Governor, some members of the PoH Governance group (including the authors of the HIP-27, @juanu and @mizu ) are requesting an official ratification signed by you to make it clear that we are institutionally in the same page.
The mechanism that we propose is to make a Snapshot poll that would require the vote of all board members. Since we cannot filter out any other person voting, only the designated PoH board members addresses will be taken into account for this poll. It was the fastest and most transparent method that we thought of, until a better signing mechanism allows you to do it in an Board Members only environment.
Snapshot begins
We, the Proof of Humanity Mission Board members, in compliance with the HIP-7 role of
Adjudicate if the proper procedure is followed on passing proposals.
And with the powers granted by HIP-21, that amends HIP-7:
The board has, however, broad power to interpret the rules of the DAO, including filling in details not specified in a proposal.
Dispute resolution:
* A board member can judge whether a proposal or action follows the rules of the DAO. When acting in this way, the board member must clearly state it (instead of just stating an opinion as a normal PoH member).
* Any member can ask another board member to weigh in on a judgment.
* If the board members disagree on the judgment, they will need a majority vote among the board members to make a final decision.
* A tie-breaking vote will be held by the board member whose seat will be up for election at the latest date. (Tie-breaker is added for the case when a seat is unoccupied or a member abstains from voting)
Hereby declare:
That although HIP-5 was not enforced in the Governor, we consider the highest standard of proposal process, and any HIP following HIP-5 is considered valid,
That nothing in the HIP-5 prevents re-submission of any HIP, and resuming is possible at any stage without the need of starting from Phase-1,
Because HIP-5 does not specify whether a republication of a Phase is valid or not (like HIP27 which has 2 Phase2. The first one did not pass, but the second one did)
My understanding is that nothing prevents retrying a phase (as someone could just rename the exact same proposal with a different number).
Actually I’m just gonna do that with HIP-23.
I don’t think anybody actually believes that this is against the procedure of HIP 5, but @mizu brought up that there’s a possibility a challenger could challenge it on the Kleros governor.
Since the deposit amount is pretty steep, we would appreciate to have more “legal clarity” and avoid any chance of an inconvenience.
That’s why we would appreciate if the board could upload this “motion” on snapshot and vote on it.
@clesaege@federicoast@santisiri Would it be ok if we add this statement to the Phase 3 of HIP-27 and consider your Approved vote as agreeing to the statement?
