I am going to chime in here.
adventurousape:
I understand that the Working Groups are now independent legal entities, as you’ve mentioned, but I think this independence shouldn’t prevent the DAO Secretary from fulfilling their role as an impartial observer. According to AIP-239, Stewards are responsible for communicating and coordinating with the DAO Secretary.
I think the issue is “where possible”. If it needs to be mandated as compulsory, as where possible, is a bit too vague. FYI even though Work Groups are AIP recipients, their Grants are required to comply to AIP-239.
Perhaps it would be better to be written:
The Secretary has the right and obligation to attend the Working Group(s) bi-weekly meeting (every two weeks). The Secretary is required to publish the summary of that meeting in the Official ApeCoin forum.
The Secretary has the right and obligation to attend a Monthly All Working Group(s) Meeting. The Secretary is required to publish the summary of that meeting in the Official ApeCoin forum.
3. The ApeCoin DAO Secretary
The ApeCoin DAO Secretary is considered an Initiative within the scope of the Governance Working Group. The Secretary acts as an oversight and accountability role to enhance inter-DAO communications amongst Working Groups, the Special Council, and with the DAO as a whole.
The Ape Assembly shall convene to elect an individual who will serve as the Secretary of the DAO.
The Secretary is subject to the same Removal and Replacement rules ratified above.
The Secretary would have term limits subject to the discretion of the Ape Assembly.
As an Initiative within the scope of the Governance Working Group, the DAO Secretary would be compelled to request a budget and compensation from the Governance Working Group.
Eligible members of the ApeCoin DAO may not hold either a Steward role, Special Council Role, or DAO Secretary role concurrently.
The responsibilities of the Secretary include, but are not limited to:
Managing a DAO-wide calendar;
Managing a DAO-wide organization chart;
Publishing a monthly ApeCoin DAO Transparency Report;
Publishing an annual ApeCoin DAO Progress Report;
Attending Working Group meetings where possible and ensuring meeting summaries are posted in the APE governance forum;
The Secretary will attend at least one meeting weekly with each Working Group where possible;
Assisting Stewards with coordination challenges within Working Groups;
Participating in a bi-weekly coordination call, held with the Leads from each Working Group, to align broader DAO strategy.
Acting as a multi-sig signer for Working Groups.
As one of the elected Working Group Zero Stewards and a champion of this proposal, @Vulkan is proposed as the DAO Secretary subject to the term limits set by the Ape Assembly upon inception.
