Governance Thoughts

1) Are we looking for a direct democracy?

2) If so (#1) what about if the masses take actions which go against the best interests of the project according to the Divi team?

3) If #1, will Gold Masternodes have 10x the influence over a Copper? If not, what would stop the Gold masternode from breaking up into 10 wallets?

4) In the WP 2.0, there was discussion about possibly validating blocks again Diamond. Could we lower that to Platinum to allow 30+ nodes?

5) If #4 comes to pass, would their be an extra rewards for those protecting the network?

6) Referencing #4, could Gold+ be nominated (similar to a DPoS) system and those validators act as little mini companies.  In other words, similar to DPoS, the validators would campaign and show how if elected, they show value to the ecosystem.

7) If #7 is considered, would part of the rewards come from the 8% for proposals or would we need to vote on adjusting the 45/45/8/2% ?

8> How would we encourage people to vote? Would they get some type of incentives or reminders?

9) Does the core team have the ability to veto any approved proposals? If so, what's the mechanism?

10) Recommendation: Hand-holding and advanced modes available to engage in the process.

11) Do we want a 10% required approval on proposals similar to Dash?

12) What percentage of the 8% governance will be green-lit for maintenance?

13) Will voters have the option to be anonymous or do we want a record of votes? Option to publicly show voting record?

14) Strengths/weaknesses on the following voting systems:  BitShares, Dash, Decred and EOS (after July 6th)

15) Recommended idea: First step is to create an easy GUI interface that the community can vote on proposals submitted by the Divi Team (similar to the current vote on airdrop/resetting blockchain)

16) What are the interim steps to get to full (or almost full) community governance? Do we envision that as a stated goal?

17) What about technical proposals that most people might not understand the implications?

18) How much do proposals cost to create? How long is the voting? Thresholds?

19) How does the system scale? Is it modular enough to upgrade/modify without designing it?

20) If the team greenlights a proposal, is there a percentage of votes from the community that would require a response?

21) If the team makes a proposal, can they set the criteria for the measure to pass?
