AIP-466: Proposal To Close Non-Essential Working Groups

[adventurousape]

I have another question in addition to my previous ones.

@SmartAPE

The Ape Foundation can hire and contract third-party teams//providers on an as-needed basis.

Who in the Ape Foundation will be hiring and contracting the third-party teams/providers? It was determined through the passing of AIP-426: Special Council- Future election requirement and role clarification, that the Special Council was an “Advisory Board’’ that serves an advisory function with no corporate decision-making power:

@coLossuss0x

The Special Council of the APE Foundation, at the behest of the ApeCoin DAO members, acts as a liaison between the ApeCoin DAO members and the directors and officers of the APE Foundation. The Special Council exists to serve the vision of ApeCoin DAO.

To further shape the success of the role long-term, the following changes are proposed to be made:

1. Clarify that the Special Council is an “Advisory Board’’ that serves an advisory function with no corporate decision-making power.

• Rationale: Oftentimes there is quoted confusion in the community about what the Special Council is or is not. In practice, the Special Council is in fact an Advisory Board neither corporate officers nor management executives, and they should not be viewed as such. The Advisory Board should also not be misconstrued as the board of directors of the APE Foundation.
