3.1 - Workflow, Performance, Challenged & Thinking

  • @tomato
    • I think this council session went pretty well. The budgets are becoming more critical to deal with, and because validators are much more stable and with higher rewards there are a lot more changes with it.
    • We also completed our first community bounty for the Telegram bot. Unfortunately it has a few small bugs still but it is at least running once again.
    • Overall we're making good progress with the KPIs, not perfect, but it seems we're starting to achieve most of them
    • Since the new KPI system we haven't had any proposals expire due to lack of votes and most proposals get voted on within a reasonable timeframe, this has been a big help in making more frequent progress.

4 - Obligations

Council obligations are payments or items that carry through council sessions. These are noted so that future councils can easily see what items they should be aware of. Items can be removed from here once they have been resolved or become outdated.

4.1 Current Documents / Processes

  • Council Report
    • Each council should produce a report which highlights important events, council participation, mint spending and other important facts surrounding the council term
  • Council Budget
    • This is a proposal which tries to guide how many tokens the current council may have available to it during a term. This is a non binding proposal, so is mainly used as a guide for now.

4.2 Documents WIP

  • Tokenomics Reports
    • This is a periodic report which should be produced after each council round has concluded. It should serve as a tool to see the overall economics of the platform.
  • Working Group Evaluations
    • This was introduced in KPI 15.5 and should serve as a way of evaluting the working groups, so far it hasn't been produced fully.

4.2 Regular Payments / Proposals

  • Council Mint
    • The council mint needs to be checked on a regular basis and in the event it is near depletion, a council member should notify a member of Jsgenesis in order for it to be refilled.
    • The council mint is set at a value decided by Jsgenesis.
  • Council Roles
    • Council Secretary
      • This role was introduced in Council Round #18 and the current payment is 2 million tokens per council round
  • Content Curator Mint
    • The Content Curator Mint currently has a maximum value of 1 million tokens.
    • The Content Curator Mint has to be filled periodically and the agreed amount was discussed earlier. The amount may change in the future, but the rewards for this role are dependent on the council passing these proposals in a timely fashion.
    • The Content Curator Lead role is expected to keep track of their mint level and any member of the Joystream platform can create a proposal to refill this mint.
  • Storage Mint
    • The Storage Mint currently has a maximum value of 1 million tokens.
    • This mint has be refilled periodically
