1. Discourse

Dogelon Mars Governance Forum is a forum for governance related discussions.

Community members must register for an account before sharing or liking posts.

A Proposal is suggested in Proposals.

To create a Proposal:
Navigate to the Proposals Category and create a new topic.

The proposal should have the following format:

  • Title – Proposal: [Insert Description]
  • Abstract - Two or three sentences that summarize the Improvement Proposal.
  • Motivation - A statement on why the Dogelon Mars community should implement the Improvement Proposal.
  • Rationale - An explanation of how the Improvement Proposal aligns with the Dogelon Mars’ community’s mission and guiding values.
  • Key Terms (optional) - Definitions of any terms within the proposal that are unique to the proposal, new to the Dogelon mars community, and/or industry-specific.
  • Specifications - A detailed breakdown of the platforms and technologies that will be used.
  • Steps to Implement - The steps to implement the Improvement Proposal, including associated costs, manpower, and other resources for each step where applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, any Improvement Proposals involving transactions with third parties (such as grants) will need to ensure that applicable legal documentation and procedures are also included.
  • Timeline - Relevant timing details, including but not limited to start date, milestones, and completion dates.
  • Overall Cost - The total cost to implement the Improvement Proposal.

Additional fields can be added to any template if necessary to fully communicate the intentions, specifics, and implications.

If an Improvement Proposal did not pass, resubmitted Improvement Proposals should also include:

  • A link to the original Improvement Proposal;
  • Reason the original Improvement Proposal was not approved;
  • Changes that have been made and why it should now be approved
